Children Of Roseline Sougie Who Was Murdered By Her Husband Jafaru In Oshodi



Female activist, Dr. Joe Odumakin visited the children and sister of the deceased Mrs. Roseline Sougie, allegedly murdered by her husband, Jafaru, in Oshodi. 

A 49-year-old man, Jafaru Sougie, pictured above allegedly killed his wife of 26 years yesterday at Araromi Street in Oshodi area of Lagos State. 
Jafaru reportedly slit his wife’s throat with a knife around 2am but she was discovered dead at 4am by one of their children named Richmond and his aunt who raised the alarm. The suspect poisoned himself thereafter and was vomiting in the bathroom when Richmond woke up. .

Punch reports the Edo State indigene was reportedly rescued from a mob by policemen from the Akinpelu division and was rushed to a hospital while the wife’s corpse was deposited in a morgue. Forty-six-year-old Roseline sold frozen foods in the Ijora area and was said to be the breadwinner of the family as the killer husband was jobless. Saturday PUNCH gathered that Jafaru had serially assaulted Roseline on the grounds of being unfaithful. .

Apart from the infidelity allegation, he reportedly beat the mother of five children for collecting gifts from her relatives for the upkeep of the family. Richmond, 16, told their correspondent that he could not explain what came over his father to have committed the act, saying he started behaving strangely afterwards. .
.
He said: “My three siblings, our aunt and I slept in the living room while dad and mum were inside. Around 4am, dad called me from the bathroom. I went to meet him but he did not say anything. I went outside to urinate and when I came back, I checked the bathroom and saw him lying down, vomiting some black substance and excreting on his body. I think he poisoned himself. I told my aunt to wake mum up to attend to him. But she didn’t wake up.


 “I shone a flashlight on her and saw blood on the bed with a wide cut in her neck. I fainted when we discovered she was dead. We later asked dad how it happened, he said somebody entered and did it whereas the compound gate is always locked in the night.
“It was mum that took care of us. She was the one sponsoring my elder brother, Collins, who just gained admission into a university in Abia State. I don’t know our fate now.
