Man Stabs Lover to Death after Sex in Ekiti

A civil servant with the Ministry of Education in Ekiti State (name withheld) has allegedly stabbed his lover to death during an argument which arose between the two after sex.

The suspect was said to have taken the 24-year-old lady, Tosin Alabi, to a hotel on Ajilosun Road in Ado Ekiti on March 24 to catch some fun after which she insisted that he must pay her what he promised before having sex with her and this led to a fight.

The man, who was said to have been slightly drunk, grabbed a bottle, broke it and stabbed the lady on the neck and buttocks.

Sympathisers and some of the hotel workers were said to have rushed the lady to a nearby hospital but there was no doctor to attend to her. She was later taken to the Ekiti State University Teaching Hospital, Ado Ekiti where she was confirmed dead.

The boyfriend was said to have escaped and gone into hiding and has not been sighted since the incident happened.

Another source told journalists that a man took the lady to a club but another man hijacked her and had sex with her.

The fight which led to Tosin’s death was said to have broken out between her and the man who hijacked her at the hotel.

The Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Mr. Victor Babayemi, said he was not aware of the incident because he had been away from the state for more than a week but promised to send the telephone number of a police officer to contact for reaction to the incident.

One of the brothers of the deceased, Mr. Paul Owolabi, told journalists that he gathered from the hotel that the man who took Tosin to the hotel stabbed her to death as a result of a dispute over how much to pay her after having sex with her.

Owolabi accused the police of trying to cover the man who committed the crime but he said that the family would not allow that to happen.

He said, “By now, the police ought to have made some arrests, including the owner of the hotel. The police said the father of Tosin’s boyfriend was arrested but was later released. We don’t know why the police should hurriedly release the man whose son stabbed our sister to death when the killer is still in hiding.
