Oladimeji, the husband said “There was a day, my wife invited her friend, a lady to our house for a visit. The first time she came was a Tuesday, she came that particular day and went back home.
“But the second day she came, it was on a Thursday. My wife on that day, cooked noodles and eggs for the lady which she ate. Later, the lady went into the bathroom and showered.
“But, when it was getting dark that day, I inquired from my wife when her friend would leave, but my wife said the lady said she was weak and she would need to lie down and regain her strength. I was sitting at the backyard, but when I returned to the room I realized my wife had killed her friend and dismembered her body.
“When I asked her what happened, she told the friend had offended her a long time ago. The person who bought the head came from Ibadan. His name is Oluomo.
“I have a friend in Ibadan, who is popularly known as Omo Baale. He told me he needed human head, but I told him I didn’t have such connection of anybody who can help facilitate it. My wife heard the discussion and asked me how much the man would pay for it (human head), I told her he was ready to pay N70,000. I never knew my wife had made up her mind.
