A husband was rescued by residents of Oko-Filling, a neighborhood in Araromi, Ijoko, Sango Ota, after he was bound, gagged and left for de@d by his wife and children following a dispute over his retirement benefits. 

The incident took place in the early hours of Thursday, March 13, at the family’s residence. 

The husband had reportedly received his retirement payout and used a portion to open two shops for his wife in Abule after giving her N3 million, The Nation reports. 

He also bought a N12 million car for himself while the family already owned a home in the area. 

However, his wife and four sons, who are all university graduates, were not happy that he did not hand over the entire funds to them to use as they deemed fit so they attempted to pressure him for more money. 

Shortly after acquiring the new vehicle for himself, he sold it, raising suspicions among neighbors. 

A local landlord, who spoke to The Nation, revealed that the man was later discovered in his home with his mouth, hands, and feet bound. 

“He was tied like an animal to be sl@ughtered. They (his wife and kids) got some Aboki men, about six of them to tie him up. It was the strange noise from their packing that alerted residents who gathered in front of the house to know what was happening. 

“Landlords in the area who could not endure the noise at that hour, decided to go out and find out what was wrong. When they got to his compound, they saw a Korope (small bus) outside packing properties. 

“His wife and sons were the ones packing and so, the residents asked after the man. When the response given was not satisfactory, they forced themselves inside the house and saw the man completely bound with the Aboki people still inside the house, as though they were waiting to k!ll him. 

“The man was untied and rushed to the hospital. He’s still at the hospital receiving treatment. The suspects were all taken to the police station. One of the Aboki men confessed it was the man’s wife that contracted them to tie him up. They were all taken to the police station that morning,” the landlord said. 

An audio message recorded by the chairman of the Anjomo Community Development Association (CDA), Emmanuel Omola, corroborated the information from the landlord. 

According to Omola, the woman had gone to the police station to report that her husband wanted to k!ll her. 

He said: “The evening of 12th March, the wife went to the police station to report that her husband wanted to k!ll her. The police told her to go and get a bus to convey the policemen to her house to arrest her husband. She left the station and didn’t return.  

“By the time she got to the neighbourhood, she went inside the house with some Aboki to tie the man and when they started packing the belongings, that was when the neighbours heard noise and that was what made them all gather there.  

“By the time they got there, they saw that the children had come with a small bus (Korope) and they had packed loads there and were leaving. 

“The residents entered the house and they met Aboki there and saw the man tied. The Aboki and the owner of the tricycle that conveyed them there confessed that it was the wife that called them.” 

Omola advised people to always ask questions whenever they hear unusual noise in their surroundings. 

“We shouldn’t be nonchalant about it, let us respond quickly. If not that the landlords responded fast, I believe the Abokis that were brought into that house wanted to kill that man, that’s what they have been told to do.  

“So, if we hear noises in our neighbour’s house, we shouldn’t say it doesn’t concern us, just a swift response can save lives. If not that the landlords in the neighborhood went out, the man would have died.  

“Now, the man is in the hospital, they said his penis is swollen. His wife, children and the Aboki are in the police station. 

“Those of you who receive pension, know how you tell your family. I think the pension the man received is what almost led to his de@th.”
