Nigerian Man Who Killed His Wife With Son’s Skateboard Sentenced To Death By UK Court
A Nigerian man, Olubunmi Abodunde, who beat his wife to death with their son’s skateboard has been jailed for life in the United Kingdom.
Abodunde, 48, and Taiwo Abodunde, 41, moved to the UK from Nigeria with their children in 2022.
Taiwo got a job as a health care assistant nurse at a care home in Cambridge while her husband, who had trained as a civil engineer, was unable to find work in his profession. He worked at Tesco and Wickes and there were arguments about bills.
He was sentenced on May 9, 2024, at Ipswich Crown Court for killing Taiwo at their Exning Road home in Newmarket, Suffolk on November 28, 2023, a day after he was bailed by police.
He changed his plea to guilty during the third day of his trial last month, having previously denied murder.
Judge Martyn Levett described the attack as ‘cold blooded and callous’ before sentencing Abodunde to a mandatory life sentence.
Mr Levett ruled he should serve a minimum of 17 years in prison before being considered for parole.
