She quickly sensed that there was a problem.\u201cWhen I reached home I found the door was already locked. This time, it was not the usual padlock. It was a different one! My husband was not at home and when he came back he couldn\u2019t allow us to enter the house and he did not want to listen to anyone either,\u201d Ms Akello told Daily Monitor on Thursday.At this point, her brother-in-law Mr Kenneth Kolo, who had earlier picked her from the hospital, offered to give her accommodation for the night.\u201cI did not take the offer since the place was quite far and I was already exhausted after giving birth,\u201d she said.The couple which has been together for 20 years now, already had four children, at the birth of the new set of triplets, with the first born being twins: Fiona Apio and Pasquelli Ocen now aged 19. Mr Kolo said it was not the first time his brother was giving his relatives a headache. \u201cHe made his first wife suffer until the woman left,\u201d he said. Ms Judith Acio, a neighbour who is currently hosting the nursing mother, said: \u201cI was so touched when I went to her home and found her seated in the cold. So, I decided to accommodate them.\u201d Mr Denis Ogweng, the LC1 chairman of Anai-Okii, said he did not know that such a heartless man was living in his area of jurisdiction.\u201cI only know the woman because the man does not stay at home. At the moment, there is no serious action that we can take since it\u2019s already a police case,\u201d Mr Ogweng said. When contacted, the North Kyoga regional police spokesperson, Mr Jimmy Patrick Okema, said he was not aware of the matter.But unconfirmed reports indicate that the run-away husband was arrested from their ancestral home in Alito Sub County in Kole District.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Uganda.
