A 49-year-old man in Akwa Ibom has beaten his wife to death and buried her body in a shallow grave in the couple’s compound to conceal the crime.
Ukachukwu Christopher,founder of Omega World Global Ministry, accused his wife, Patience (40), of infidelity and being responsible for his failings, police said.
