A staff of Silverbird, one Aishat Noble Mustapha, was at the weekend stabbed to death near her residence at Ogudu, Lagos, by her jealous boyfriend.
The deceased, who was described as charming and cheerful by her colleagues and acquaintances, was said to have been pregnant.
It was gathered that the deceased was said to have been stabbed over 10 times by the said boyfriend, who has since been picked up by the police for interrogation.
Until her death, the deceased worked at the box office of the Silverbird Galleria Mall in Ikeja, Lagos.
It was gathered that the suspect was picked up based on information obtained from some neighbours who had witnessed them quarreling before the attack.
Eyewitness accounts said the boyfriend had queried her about her relationship with another man, and she had told him point blank that there was nothing between them.
Refusing to believe her story, the suspect was said to have descended on her, after which he stabbed her repeatedly to death.
As at press time, efforts to confirm the arrest of the suspect by the police proved abortive as a text message sent to the state police spokesperson, DSP Kenneth Nwosu, was not replied.
