Tragedy struck at the Onikolobo area of Abeokuta, Ogun State on Saturday
when a 33-year-old man, Oluwatosin Otaiku, stabbed himself to death after his
fiancee, Olaogun Oluwatoyin, discontinued the relationship.
It was gathered that Otaiku killed himself after his
woman told him she was no longer interested in the relationship.
After the girlfriend made a U-turn, the deceased was said to have become
worried, and this made neighbours, who were aware of the development, to
intervene. Efforts were made to reconcile them.
On one of such occasions, an eyewitness said the duo was invited to
discuss in privacy inside a shop at Safari junction in Onikolobo.
Otaiku was said to have hid a knife in his pocket, prepared to end it
all if there was no truce.
It was further gathered that Olaogun stood her ground and maintained
that she could not continue with the relationship.
On hearing this unfavourable verdict, the deceased reportedly brought
out the knife from his pocket which made Olaogun to run out of the shop,
thinking she was the target.
Olaogun was said to have immediately alerted neighbours who rushed into
the shop and met the deceased stabbing himself.
He was said to have been rushed to the Mercy Hospital in the Panseke
area of Abeokuta.
From there, he was referred to the Federal Medical Centre, Idi-Aba, also
in Abeokuta, but he died on the way to the hospital.
The case was said to have been reported at the Adigbe Police Division
and policemen were sent to the scene for investigation.
While they took the remains of Otaiku to the Ijaye General Hospital
mortuary, three other people were whisked away in a Hilux Van marked, NPF 7092
C.
The State Police Public Relations Officer, Muyiwa Adejobi, a Deputy
Superintendent of Police, confirmed the incident, adding that the police were
still holding on to Otaiku’s remains until a postmortem examination would be
carried out.
Adejobi explained that the command was still examining the statements by
the suspects and eyewitnesses.
He said, “The lady is still with us, she is still our suspect for now
until we carry out a proper investigation on the corpse.
“We need some time to study the statements, but the expert’s opinion is
to carry out a postmortem on the body which we are going to do. I can assure
you that the command will do the needful in order to get to the root of the
incident.”

ReplyDeleteIn this case the police have proved themself to be grossly incompetent in their handling of the case. The man took his life in the presence of witnesses, so why are the police detaining the girlfriend?
