Hello Friends!
Story, Story, Story...If the Wife was benefiting from the proceeds of his robbery escapades and yet she did not deem it fit to know what exactly her husband was doing, she should be further interrogated...
Wife of a slain armed robber, Mercy Esho, has said that she did not know that her husband was an armed robber.
Mercy, who was delivered of a baby few days ago, is the wife of Babatunde Esho, the leader of an armed robbery gang, who was killed in a crossfire with the police last Saturday, in Ilesa.
Parading Mercy at the state command on Thursday, the Commissioner of Police, Osun State Command, Mrs. Kalafite Adeyemi, said various items were recovered at Esho’s residence.
Adeyemi said detectives from the command busted the gang during the christening of Esho’s baby, adding that the gang’s leader opened fire on detectives before he was gunned down.
She said, “Several items were recovered from his wife including three locally-made pistols, 17 live cartridges; three laptops; two LCD televisions; four wristwatches; a brand-new photocopier; 13 mobile phones; and one iPad.
“The LCD televisions and iPad tablet have been identified by their owners from Ijebu-Jesa and Esa-Oke respectively.”
Maintaining her innocence, Mercy said she did not know that her husband was an armed robber.
Mercy said, “May I not do well in life if I know that he was an armed robber. He used to maltreat me and starve me even when I was pregnant.
“It was his parents who urged me to marry him. He slept with me only once and I got pregnant. We were having the naming ceremony when police swooped on the party.”
