The prosecution witness who testified before the court claimed that the late Barrister was unaware that the boy who had been living in his home for years was actually his wife’s son because she had claimed that the boy was her younger brother.
The deceased’s friend, Barrister Sunny Anyanwu, who also testified in court, said Ikoiwak passed away shortly after telling him over the phone that he was having issues with his wife over infidelity.
Anyanwu added that the deceased said he reported the case to his wife’s family who invited him to a meeting in their family compound in Nung Udoe Itak, Ikono LGA, but he did not return alive.
Anyanwu, who is the seventh prosecution witness in the case, also claimed that the deceased lawyer told him that his wife was having an affair with her former boss, a lawyer named Barrister C.I. Odoh.
Before his death, Ikoiwak allegedly told his friend that his wife worked as a housekeeper for a Catholic Priest, Rev. Father Maurice Mbeke, who impregnated her and they gave birth to a child who is now 19-year-old named after her maternal grandfather.
An audio evidence was played in court by the prosecution team, which was led by Barr. Joseph Umoren, the Director of Public Prosecutions for Akwa Ibom State.
Meanwhile, the case is still ongoing.
