A former boxer identified as Moses Olapade has been arrested by the Ondo Police for punching his wife to a coma over television remote.
The incident reportedly happened in Ondo; at their residence at No. 9 Odama Street in the Oke-Aro community of Akure.
According to the police report, the wife of the ex-boxer refused to give him the television remote to change the channel.
The ex-boxer, who is now a truck driver reportedly returned home from a journey on the fateful day and wanted to watch a programme on the television. He demanded the television remote from his wife but she refused.
Out of anger, the former boxer landed punches on her face until she became unconscious. The neighbours in the vicinity reportedly intervened after the children of the couple called for help.
The matter was reported to leaders of the community, who then called the police, and Olapade was subsequently arrested.
