The police in Oyo State on Wednesday paraded a 23-year-old final year female student of Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH), Ogbomoso, Abiodun Olabisi, for allegedly stabbing a fresh graduate of the university, Lekan Adegun, to death.
The Commissioner of Police in the state, Abiodun Odude, said the Department of Biochemistry student was arrested after the incident last month.
The police chief told journalists that Mr Adegun had just completed his studies and was awaiting mobilisation by the National Youth Service Corps when he was allegedly stabbed to death by Ms Olabisi.
He said the suspect and the deceased were cohabiting in the usual students’ tradition of “trial marriage” at Phoenix area, Stadium Road, Ogbomoso, before the incident.
“The incident happened at about 8 p.m on 21/11/2018 following a quarrel arising from petty jealousy. The victim, a graduate of Transport Management, who was stabbed in the chest, was later rushed to the Bowen University Teaching Hospital, Ogbomoso but died before he could be attended to,” Mr Odude said.
He added that the kitchen knife Ms Olabisi allegedly used in committing the crime had been recovered and the suspect had been arraigned in court.
