According to a Nigerian Tribune report, the deceased fondly called Teebam, who was a Cairo-based businessman returned from his base unannounced to Nigeria as a surprise to his wife. 
“Though the motive of the deceased was to visit the country and celebrate the birthday anniversary of his wife in a big way but instead of heroic reception from the wife, he was said to be given a dirty slap with an accusation that, he was unfaithful to their marriage to the extent of having a bastard child outside the union,” the report says. 
The development, however, was said to have generated hot arguments between the couple who threw decorum into the wind and engaged themselves in a war of words.

It was gathered that the wife forcibly took his husband’s phone to scan through to ascertain information received concerning the infidelity of his husband but in the process, the husband was said to have resisted her and this infuriated the temperamental wife, who went berserk, after claiming that, she had justified that her husband has really cheated on her for refusing to release his phone to her for fact-finding.
She was said to have set him ablaze after locking him in the house and all efforts of residents in the area to save his life proved abortive as it took them hours before they could gain access to the house as a result of anti-burglary bars protecting the front door and windows of the home.
