Lagos man stabs girlfriend to death

The Lagos State police have detained 47-year-old Emmanuel Chukwuma after he fatally stabbed his 45-year-old lover Bosede Adefehinti on 7th Avenue in Festac. 

The male, who went by Oliver on the street, lived with the woman as a boyfriend and girlfriend rather than as a married pair, based on the evidence acquired. 

Results showed that the man had a child somewhere, even though they didn't have one together. Our journalist was informed by an eyewitness who asked to remain anonymous that the couple had problems in the past.

He said, “Yesterday around 2:30 pm, Oliver stabbed his girlfriend, and after stabbing her, he tried to kill himself by jumping into the well, but we stopped him and called the police.

“They are not married, and this is not the first time they have had issues, but yesterday’s was beyond anything before.

“What I believe caused the fight was an inferiority complex on the man’s part because he has no job and helps his girlfriend sell herbal medicines, popularly known as Agbo—a concoction prepared from a variety of herbs.

“So most times, when he’s selling, the girlfriend leaves the shop while he remains there, sometimes receiving banter from the customers.”

SP Benjamin Hundeyin, the spokesman for the Lagos State Police, confirmed the occurrence.
