South-South Governor’s Aide, Shimite, Dies in Domestic Violence Case, Husband in Custody

Shimite Winifred Bello, a trade and export adviser to Delta State Governor Sheriff Oborevwori, has away.

Bello reportedly passed away on Monday due to alleged domestic abuse.

Harrison Gwamnishu, a human rights activist and another governor’s aide, verified her death, though the incident’s specifics are still unclear.

On Monday, April 21, Gwamnishu lamented his colleague’s death in a Facebook post.

Human rights advocate Victor Ojie stated in another post that “marriage is not by force oh.” It’s better to lose your marriage than to lose your life oh.”

Another user of the social networking platform, Oge Okonkwo reported that Bello’s husband has been arrested by the police following her passing.

Tameta Sunday, the late Bello’s aide, said her husband killed her.

“It’s very difficult to type RIP boss,” Sunday said in a message, “knowing full well that an ugly soul called pastor with a gentle look as a husband cut all the positive plans we had together.”
