The family of a former ophthalmic nurse at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital, Taiwo Owoeye, who was found dead in her home in Suffolk, United Kingdom, has expressed sadness over her death.

PUNCH Metro learnt that Taiwo was allegedly strangled to death by her husband, David Abodunde on Tuesday, November 28.

It was gathered that the mother of three who was also a nurse in the UK had reported a case of an assault by her husband to the police on Monday, November 27.

The police, upon visiting their apartment the following day, found Taiwo lying on the floor of the living room motionless. Efforts to revive her, however, proved abortive as she was declared dead by the paramedics who arrived at the scene.

Taiwo’s husband who also was said to be inside the apartment with her was thereafter arrested on suspicion of her murder.

The couple got married in 2016. However, the late Taiwo relocated to the UK in 2022 and was later ed by her husband earlier this year.

The deceased’s brother, Alex Owoeye, who mourned her ing in a Facebook post claimed that David was declared the sole murderer after an investigation carried out by the police.

He wrote, “This is to officially announce the painful exit of my dear sister, Nurse Owoeye Taiwo Morenikeji, married to Abodunde David Olubunmi of Ipoti Ekiti. According to the Suffolk Police in the UK and the available documents and records sent to us via mail and direct conversations from the UK Police, after thoroughly conducted investigations, despite being caught in the act, he (the husband) was declared the sole murderer of his wife (my sister).”

Owoeye noted that the three children of the couple were currently being taken care of by the UK social services.

He also urged his family to keep calm while assuring them that justice would be served in due course.

Another relative, Opeyemi Owoeye, also wrote on her Facebook page, “She was killed by her own very husband (Abodunde Bunmi David), no peace for the wicked. Justice for Owoeye Taiwo.”

Reacting to the news of her death, another Facebook , Olabanji Fabiyi, described it as heart-wrenching.

He wrote, “The recent tragic news of Taiwo Owoeye Abodunde murdered by her husband in Suffolk, United Kingdom, is profoundly heart-wrenching. Although myself and Taiwo were not that so close, her late dad and my late dad were childhood friends and her mum and mine are also good friends, all from Igogo Ekiti. Considering her upbringing, it seems improbable that any provocation from Taiwo warranted such a brutal act as strangulation. Also, the audio clip of what transpired between them prior to the untimely death is a pointer to the animalistic, barbaric and untrained husband she had.”

Love is sweet, but when it begins to reveal its true nature, even the devil will be shocked. Believe this and know peace, there is no such thing as love, we just dey deceive ourselves in other to shift smelling pant.

There is Yoruba adage that says " if a cheating wife did not kill her husband, she will definitely kill herself". Yorubas is too sensible

Hard o.
It is hard to dabble into matters with half information. We all don't know the details. So, I will not be quick to rain hailstones on the husband.

But, if the woman being a nurse is anything to consider, if her being in the UK before her husband ing her is another thing to consider and if the husband being an Ondo man is yet another angle to the story, one thing is sure: the woman must have been flexing power and authority to the man with a few extramarital affairs in the bag.
You see these UK nurses like to put it in your face soon as they assume control.
Maybe, maybe not .
Who knows.
Sha, the man's life is effectively over. The kids are in for a trying time.
It is a winless situation. Anger solves nothing.
