Akpanke, who confessed to the crime at the police headquarters in Calabar, said he had on several occasion warned the man against coming to his father’s house to have s*x with his stepmother.
Speaking with Pres on the incident leading to the death of the deceased, whose identity was not disclosed, Akpanke said he acted in self-defence.
His words, “On that day, he came to my house around 9am to abuse me. There was nobody in the house. The house belongs to my late father and I am the third son. So, when he started abusing me, we fought. He brought a stick, but I went inside and took a knife and stabbed him in the head.
“I later discovered that he had died. It was a mistake. The young man was having regular s*x with my late father’s wife. I warned him several times to stay off the house, but he refused. He was always in our house to have s*x with her. He called me all sorts of names. He planned to kill me.”
King Akpanke will be charged to court to defend his action.
