Man accused of killing own wife to die by hanging

A Lagos High Court has sentenced Ayo Arowolo, man accused of killing his banker wife on June 24, 2011, to death by hanging.
While delivering the verdict, Justice Lateefat Okunnu declared Arowolo guilty of murder and sentenced him to death.
The judgement, which lasted more than two and half hours, was based on testimonies and evidence of fifteen witnesses including family members of the deceased, Mrs. Omozodje Arowolo, investigating police officers, photographers and Chief pathologist of Lagos state.
Mr. Arowolo broke down in the dock during the judgment and said many times while being taken away that he would not die of the judgment.
He shouted "Jesus Christ, I cannot die" many times as he was led away by prison warders.
