“My wife did not incur any debt. We were both working together before
she was laid off during the last downsizing by the management.
“We opened a shop in town where she sold animal feeds, and the business thrived. But when she got pregnant, she took ill. Even after she gave birth, the sickness assumed a frightening dimension.
“So, I took her to Babcock University Teaching Hospital, but her condition did not improve. I informed her mother about it, and she later took her to Iloro-Ekiti.
“She was under medical attention at Iloro-Ekiti for about six months, and her condition improved greatly. I had to go and bring her back to Ilisan. But before she returned, the salesgirl I got for her to handle the shop in her absence made away with over N200,000 from the sales of the feeds.
“I had got an additional N300,0000 loan from the cooperative to boost the business again, and I was even planning to plough more money into it.
“Even on the day of the incident, she went to the bank in the morning to deposit some money from the previous day’s sales. So, I don’t really know the reason for this action she took.”.
