Tragedy struck in the Ajegunle, Apapa area of Lagos State, after a 20-year-old woman, Gift Wahab, stabbed her lover, Ebi Amade, 28, to death.

PUNCH Metro learnt that the incident occurred at the couple’s residence on Fasasi Street, Ajegunle, Apapa, on Thursday, March 19.

Our correspondents gathered that the suspect, Wahab, who hailed from Uromi, Edo State, had been living with Ebi since 2013, after she dropped out of secondary school. Ebi hailed from Bayelsa State.

The two reportedly had a kid in 2014, who died in December after a brief sickness.

It was learnt that the couple had gone on an outing on Thursday when an argument ensued in the afternoon over feeding money.

Wahab, a hairdresser, was said to have stabbed the 28-year-old to death after they got home.

Policemen from the Layeni division were alerted by neighbours and she was subsequently arrested.

Speaking with PUNCH Metro, the suspect said she did not intend to kill her lover, adding that she acted in anger.

She said, “We have been together since 2013. My father died and I dropped out of school when I was in SSS 3, and that was when we started dating.

“On Thursday, we went out for an event. As we were returning home, I said he should hand me the key to the house and my feeding allowance, but he said no. He explained that he had no money for our feeding.

“Then he started to abuse me. I told him I was going home, and that he should not bother about the money again. That was how he punched me in the face and attacked me while we were still on the road.

“I left him and went to look for a hammer, which I used to break the door. That night, when he came in, I was still angry. I got a knife which I used to stab him. I didn’t intend to kill him. I was just annoyed over what happened in the afternoon.”

It was gathered that neither the victim’s relatives nor the suspect’s had learnt about the incident.

However, the corpse of the victim had been deposited in a mortuary in the area.

A police source revealed that Ebi was stabbed to death on the right side of the neck.

He added that the police had also recovered the knife used to commit the crime.

He said, “The couple met each other at a night club in 2013 and had been dating since then. They were not legally married. They went out on Thursday and probably got drunk in the process. When they returned, there was an argument and a fight began.

“The suspect ran to the kitchen and grabbed a knife. She stabbed her lover in the right side of the neck, and he was rushed to a hospital, where he died.”

The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Kenneth Nwosu, confirmed the incident, adding that the matter had been transferred to the State Department of Criminal Investigations for further investigation.

He said, “The case has been transferred to the SDCI for further investigation, while the suspect is in our custody.”

na wa o. Nothing good to read in news these days. its either naira us falling, old men rapping young girls, cultist killing, men beheading vio, hundreds of innocent Nigerians buried in a grave, all victims of Bokoharam, etc etc.... shey na poverty de cause all these ni abi wetin gan sef

Every day women ar killing their
husband
Those silly feminists no go advice
them
Yet dem go dey say men wicked
From last week monday till this
monday different new of this same
crime has surfaced the internet
Back to back
It is almost becoming a norm
I wonder what the younger women
ar learning
I know a lady will quote me to say
poo
But incase u don't know. I am
saying this for ur own good
because when it becomes a norm
the younger men would evolve into
a bigger beast
Man was given authority women
were given influence
It was a result of the abuse of that
influence that men started abusing
their authority only women has the
power to chang this world but the
devil that deceived them form the
beginning is still doing the same
I wonder y GOD gave such a power
to a gullible creature like them

Would we say this frustration, poverty or greed.

Lol men better think twice before beating their women! Now the fool is dead
This is a crime of passion and she has the rest of her life in jail to think about her actions.

The number of women killing their husbands/lovers these days is escalating. Before it used to be the other way round..

Women! Smh.

anybody against the re-election of president Good luck Jonathan, we would open the gate of hell for them

in Jesus Christ our God we stand.

She's an APC woman; only followers of Buhari have the impetus to lift a weapon against their lover. The same way Boko haram members killed their wives so they could meet again in heaven

GEJ - 2019!

Why all these bad news this monday morning

labatan

Another domestic violence gone wrong. Why is the dead lover in his drawers? I don't believe it's because of feeding allowance. The guy probably wanted to have a taste of her honeypot despite what happened earlier that day.

Toh! Last time when I said what I'm not gonna say here again, they wanted to crucify me. Don't marry or co-habit with ASHAWO, una no go hear.

Wickedness increasing by the day. May God please help us.

why too many marriage palavah these days between so called lover birds?

Only God can help us from deadly partners....hell has no fury of an angry woman

Women r not smiling these days oo..may God save us. Guys b careful oo. Not all lady u c on d streets r sane oo.

Though I know of a couple that met in a NIGHT CLUB and got married without any incident... I will never marry a club girl (If I know she is one)
