Detectives from the criminal Investigation
Division of the state Police Command are
presently looking for her.
Reporter gathered that the crime was committed last Thursday at their number 70 Ijapo extension residence in Akure at 5a.m.

Akure.
A co-tenant, who gave his name as Kelechi,
said: "Ebere and Patrick frequently engage in fights but on Thursday, October 17, at 5a.m,the couple began to fight.
"Most times they engage in such fights, I go
there to settle it. But on this fateful
morning, when I got into their room I saw
Ebere holding a knife against her husband so I pleaded with her to drop the knife and pleaded with Patrick not to beat his wife.
"At the first attempt I succeeded in
separating them. So Ebere dropped the knife.
But as soon as Patrick saw that his wife had
dropped the knife, he seized the opportunity
to pounce on her and gave her another beating.
How he died
"I told Patrick to stop, but I noticed that
when he tried to move away he slumped and that was when I screamed for help and called other members of the house.
"When we entered the apartment we realised
that Patrick was already on the floor. So
people began to urge Ebere to lift her husband up.
She eventually did and we saw that the
father of two was already bleeding.
"We were all shocked and most of the people
took to their heels. Ebere escaped with her
two kids to an unknown destination."
Police image-maker, Wole Ogodo, confirmed the ugly incident.
Ogodo said: "One Mr. Tuyi, who is the landlord of the house the couple lived in, reported the incident to the Police Station on Thursday 17, at 6.45a.m.
Ogodo said that policemen are searching for
the suspected killer, while the corpse of the deceased had been deposited at the Akure State Specialist Hospital morgue for autopsy.
