A certain middle aged woman in Delta State, has been confirmed dead after consumed an Egusi soup she had prepared for her husband to gain back his love.

The woman, who's name was simply given as Egwoli, had reportedly sprinkled some substances she obtained from a native doctor into the soup, as she had been told the substances would make her husband find her more desirable.

However, she didn't know that the “charm” was actually poisonous.

It was also gathered from her neighbours that Egwoli visited the native doctor because she believed her husband was cheating on her, as they hadn't slept together since they got married two years ago.

Nemesis finally caught up with her, as she returned from the native doctor, she mixed the charm into the soup she intended to serve to her husband.

However, her husband was not home at the time. Somewhere along the line, she is said to have mistakenly mixed the charm into her own soup not knowing it was poisonous. She subsequently ate it, went to bed and died.

Speaking on his wife's death, the husband says, “my wife had threatened to make me impotent when I stopped making love to her for obvious reasons and I found some fetish items in her room, including the egusi soup she ate before her death.”

Meanwhile, the case is still under police investigation.
