Yewande Oyediran standing trial for allegedly killing her husband after a fight between them at their Ibadan home, had been sentenced to seven years imprisonment for manslaughter at the Oyo State High Court sitting in Ibadan, on Monday.

 

Justice Munta Abimbola of the Oyo State High Court sitting in Road, Ibadan, delivering judgement on the case, said the manslaughter submission was admitted because it was a marital squabble and not premeditated.

 

The judgement came for 29-year-old Yewande Oyediran (nee Fatoki), a lawyer with the Oyo State Ministry of Justice who was alleged of unlawfully causing the death of her 38 years old husband, Lowo Oyediran, her 38 years old husband, after counsels in the matter adopted their final written addresses.
