Man kills best friend for speaking to his wife

A man stabs his best friend to death simply because he was paranoid that the latter spoke to his wife.

Police sources at Oke-Efon, Abeokuta, Nigeria, say the 50-year-old suspect has been arrested, while his accomplice who helped him in the beastly act is still on the run.

Media reports say the suspect got into a fit of rage on “seeing the deceased on his wife’s bed”.

The victim had gone to his house to invite the couple to his mom’s 80th birthday, said the deceased’s brother.
