In Benin, the Edo capital, Christopher beat his 39-year-old wife, Isoken, to death over N2,000.
According to NAN, the incident happened on Saturday night at No. 1, Agbontaen Street in Uselu, near Ebvareke Secondary School.
Augustine Christopher, the eldest child, said his father, a trash manager in Benin, used to beat his mother.
He remembers Christopher, 45, calling the dead earlier in the day and requesting N2,000.
The father allegedly returned home around 9 p.m. and attacked Isoken, accusing her of embarrassing him every time he asked for money, according to the son.
Augustine disclosed that after the assault, he tried to give the mother paracetamol and water but Christopher seized both and threw it away.

“She went out to pour water on her body and later lay down outside. My father locked us inside the room and went outside to pounce on my mother where she was lying down.
That was when neighbours came and rushed her to two different hospitals, where she was both pronounced dead on arrival,” he narrated.
The boy said that his father was a smoker and was always drunk.
A neighbour, Mrs Florence Obahiagbon, corroborated Augustine’s recount.
She said after Isoken died, residents invited vigilantes who apprehended Christopher as he attempted to escape.
Edo Police Command spokesman, SP Bello Kontongs, confirmed the incident. He said investigation has commenced.
