The indecent was reported by Mrs. Peter Johnson who said that she caught her husband, Mr. Peter Johnson in the act with his apprentice, Uchenna Ekeada.

This is where Uchenna Ekeada lives in a shared apartment.

“To her greatest surprise, her suspicions became a reality as she found her husband with his apprentice making love.

“She screamed on top of her voice which attracted the next door neighbour and cohabitants of the property.
