A man simply identified as Reginald from Lawa-Ogbaku, in Mbaitoli Local Government Area of Imo State has hanged himself to death after allegedly catching his wife with another man, Ukachwukwu.

Reginald was said to have heard about his wife’s amorous affair with Ukachukwu again on Sunday and as he couldn’t bear the shame of their alleged affair, hanged himself on a tree in the compound of Ukachukwu.

It was also said that elders of the kindred had got tired of warning both about their affairs.
