<p>NAN also learned that the two aged couple had a disagreement, which degenerated into fisticuffs at their residence at Ohobo-Afara Umuahia.</p>



<p>“During the fight, the man allegedly grabbed a machete to scare the wife but the woman reportedly overpowered him.</p>



<p>The machete fell off his hand and the huge woman pinned him down by the neck and strangled him to death,” a resident of the area said on condition of anonymity.</p>



<p>Another account had it that the deceased might have slumped and died “out of exhaustion after his quarrel with his wife”.</p>



<p class="has-text-color has-very-dark-gray-color">“It is not possible that a woman of about 73 years can muster the strength to strangulate a man,” a friend to the family also said on condition of anonymity<a href="https://occupygh.com/70-year-old-woman-strangles-husband-to-death-over-a-misunderstanding">.</a> NAN further learned that the relations of the deceased rallied round to bury him shortly after his death, according to Islamic rite, before Ibeabuchi reportedly alerted the police.</p>



<p>The suspect, who was said to have immediately gone into hiding, was later arrested and detained by the police.</p>



<p>According to a police source, Ibeabuchi stated in his report that his parents were quarreling at the time he left the house.</p>



<p>“He further stated that by the time he returned, he saw the lifeless body of his father in a sitting position in their house,” the source further said.</p>
