She said her mother had arrived from overseas to visit her and her children. 'What was meant to be a joyful family visit turned into a heartbreaking nightmare that changed our lives forever,' Ogbejiele said on the page. 'When I returned from work, I saw my husband coming out of the house in his work uniform, going to work. He immediately turned back and followed me behind, and I opened the door and asked him if he was going to work.' 'He answered that 'he had resigned from his job,' which I knew nothing about at that time,' she continued. 'Immediately, I entered the house. He followed me behind and locked the door, and then he started attacking me with a knife, trying to kill me by stabbing my stomach, neck, shoulder, hand and head multiple times. I was able to escape from the house during the process of struggling to survive, I didn't see or hear from my mum, not knowing that he had already stabbed my mum multiple times.' Two children were at the scene and were found unharmed. Greater Sudbury Police arrested a 36-year-old man at 11:30 a.m. July 1 near Alder Street and charged him with first-degree murder and attempted murder, among other offences.
