Nigerian Doctor Kills Wife, Attempts To Strangle His Two Sons Before Committing by Catchfirez: 12:06pm On Dec 20, 2020
Sugar Land police in Texas are investigating the death of a Nigerian couple found dead in apparent murder-suicide.



The husband and wife identified as Benjamin Okigbo and Theresa Okigbo were found dead at their Greatwood home on Friday morning, December 18.

The discovery was made around 10:05 am at the Greatwood Subdivision in the 1500 block of Brookstone Lane. Police said the case is being investigated as a murder-suicide.



On Saturday, Police said that their investigation revealed that Benjamin Okigbo strangled Theresa Okigbo to death. He then attempted to kill both of his 21-year-old sons by strangling them before he eventually killed himself by hanging.



Both of the sons survived the attack with injuries that are not life-threatening. They are both receiving treatment at a hospital.

On Friday morning, the couple's daughter, who doesn't live at the home, went there after she became concerned. She then called 911 and told the dispatchers that her parents were dead.



"One of the kids dialed 911 apparently there was a fight or disturbance going on inside the residence," Police chief Eric Robbins said.



When officers arrived, they found the couple's bodies inside. They were both in their 50s.



Many neighbours were shocked when they heard the news. One said the couple had lived in the Greatwood home for about 20 years. She said she spoke to the wife a few days ago and nothing seemed out of the ordinary.



The investigation remains ongoing.

When we embrace Western way of life and abandon the African family traditions of our fore fathers all we get is chaos. Heaven rest the souls of the departed.

Men and women should learn to avoid quarrelsome partners.. .

Proverbs 21:19
Better to live in a desert than with a quarrelsome and nagging wife.

This is the fault of the North.

If the North has not been dragging us backward, Benjamin Okigbo wouldn't have destroyed his family in Texas.

Pls no one should ask me how the North is at fault. Just look for the nearest ipob lunatic, he will provide a detailed explanation. undecided

Life is often unfair, some want a family and don't have one, others have one and destroy it. Whatever the reason for this murder / suicide, the murderer is wrong, because no one can take the life of another. cool cool cool
