One Sodiq Fatai has been allegedly
hacked to death by a man, identified only as Asunmo, during a scuffle over a
prostitute in Lagos State.
Both men were drinking at a bar in
the White Sand area of Ijora Badia when Asunmo challenged Fatai over his
relationship with the lady, whom he (Asunmo) was dating but Fatai, a cab
driver, had denied the allegation, Punch reports.
An ensuing rift saw Asunmo stab
his victim with an empty bottle. He reportedly died immediately.
The state Police Public Relations
Officer, PPRO, SP Dolapo Badmos confirmed the incident, saying the duo had a
disagreement over a woman.
She said, “Asunmo suspected that Fatai was
dating his girlfriend and he confronted him. Although the man denied, he
attacked and killed him. The woman in question is a prostitute.
“The
suspect, who initially escaped, has been arrested.
“The
corpse has been deposited in the morgue of the Mainland General Hospital.”
