“She held the pestle and started hitting me but I had to withdraw it from her. I hit her which caused her to collapse,” he said.

The suspect said he met Ugwu on Facebook in 2023 and resumed their relationship after she returned to Enugu in 2026.
He said he had intended to marry her and had spoken with her mother before the incident.
Asked about his actions, Emmanuel said he was not fully aware of himself at the time and attributed this to possibly being under the influence of a substance.
“This thing is not actually what I did clearly or intentionally. I wasn’t fully aware of myself first,” he said.
He pleaded for forgiveness and mercy, saying he had been praying to God over the incident.
