How school principal was killed in his house by angry lover’s son

There was confusion at Ibagwa-Aka, in Igbo-Eze South Local Government Area of Enugu State on Saturday, following the murder of Ekwegbe High School principal, Simon Ugwuabor, in his house over love matters.

It was gathered that the deceased had allegedly snatched his lover (name withheld), from her matrimonial home where she had already had six children for her first husband and wedded her in the court as the lover’s family refused any traditional or formal marital arrangement with him.

It was further learnt that the lover had also given her new husband two children when one her sons from her first husband, Onyedikachukwu Ezeugwu, demanded that she should return home to his father.

Trouble started when the school principal refused to grant his request and even warned him to stop coming to his house to disturb his peace.

Sabastine Uramah, who claimed to be familiar with the story informed journalists that the deceased principal tried all he could to induce the angry son with money but he refused on the ground that what the mother did brought shame to his family name.
