The widow of the late
Credit Switch CEO, Mr Opeyemi Bademosi, Mrs Ebunoluwa Bademosi, has testified
before a Lagos State High Court, Igbosere, on how a Togolese cook killed her
husband.
The widow accused
22-year-old Togolese cook, Sunday Anani, of killing her husband three days
after he was employed to work for the family, Sunnewsonline reports.
The witness told Justice
Mobolanle Okikiolu-Ighile that she got to the bank at exactly 8:05am.
She said:
“I left the bank and drove
through Bourdillon and went home; the security man opened the gate and I drove in
and went through the kitchen door to gain access into the building, through the
kitchen door, but it was locked. I knocked severally, calling on the defendant,
he didn’t respond; my husband’s bedroom and the kitchen door was a distance. So
I felt he must be doing something for him, so I waited by the kitchen door for
a while.
“While I was waiting, I got
a call from my sister in Ibadan and we spoke for about 5-6 minutes. At some
point, I brought out my phone from my bag and called my husband; then I realised
that the phone was being picked, but kept mute. I called him twice and it was
the same thing. It was showing minutes counting but nobody was talking. At that
stage, I decided to pass through the front door, thinking if I got there, there
would be somebody at the door but by the time I got to the front door, I
realised that the door was left ajar,” the witness stated.
Testifying further, Mrs Bademosi
said:
“I entered the apartment;
by the time I got in, I looked up and saw blood flowing out, from my husband’s
bedroom; I couldn’t enter because the door was a bit closed but I could see his
body lying on the floor and because I wasn’t sure of what could be happening
inside, the bedroom, I ran out of the building and started screaming, calling
neighbours for help; a couple of people came. I told them to go up and check
that something was happening, that I din’t know what exactly it was.”
The widow added that, she
later ran to asked the security man at the gate:
‘Where is that guy that oga
brought into the house?’ What is happening?’ ‘Who is inside the house?’”
She said the security
informed her that the defendant had told him that he was sent on an errand.
“Immediately people started
coming, my next door neighbours and her driver were going upstairs and I
followed them but I stood at a distance and they came out and said he is gone
(my husband is gone) and the defendant was not inside the house; then I passed
out,” she narrated.
The witness further said:
“By the time I woke up, I
saw a crowd around me; inside the house, my husband’s corpse was lying down
there, but they later took me downstairs.
“The police came and took
his corpse in an ambulance, and he was buried on November 21, 2018.”
