COO had gone to a hospital to check on his sickly child when he found the wife missing.

The woman told COO on the phone that she had returned home to look after their other child.

After spending hours in the hospital, COO rushed home, where he busted his wife with EMO in bed.

He attacked him, the court heard.

In her ruling, after considering the accounts of all eight witnesses in court, Justice Roselyn Aburili argued that the deceased pushed COO to the edge.
