News broke yesterday (HERE) that a 3-00 Caleb University student, Morrison
Akinbule, was allegedly M urdered by his baby mama identified as
Chidinma.
The said Chidinma has now been
arrested by the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department
Yaba for the murder of Morrison.
It was gathered that the boy started their relationship 3-years ago and have a child together but are yet to tie the knot.
The
sad incident on Saturday night after Chidnma visited the deceased’s
mother’s Gbagada home to pass the night. They got into a fight which
resulted in Chidnma hit Morrison on the head leading to his death.
The deceased’s elder sister who spoke with Punch Metro on the
telephone on Wednesday, said Chidinma had yet to disclose what caused
the argument which led to her brother’s death.
The sister, who
did not give her name, said the family was being cautious in discussing
the incident with “strangers” for security reasons.
She said,
“The lady has been arrested and she is in Panti (SCIID). The incident
happened in our mother’s house, not on the (Caleb University) campus.
She came around to visit him. We have not ascertained what led to the
argument. We have been trying to find out, but she is not saying the
truth.
“They had been together for about three years and they
have a kid. She is a babymama. The boy is one year and six months old.
That was the major thing that bound them together.
“We are ready
to follow the case to a logical conclusion. We have been asking her what
led to his death because there is no injury on his body.”
The
sister, however, declined replies to further inquiries made by PUNCH
Metro on the matter, saying “this is a critical period for us and we are
being very careful. That is all I can tell you for now (she cuts the
call).”
One Mia Seren, who claimed to be Akinbule’s neighbour,
revealed what happened saying a piece of cloth was tied to the
deceased’s neck when he was brought out from the apartment.
Seren said he was rushed to a hospital, where he was confirmed dead by doctors on arrival.
“He
went for a party; came back around 9pm. Chidinma was not home, so he
called her to ask her where she was. They planned to meet at one place.
When they came back, they were with fast foods and they went to their
room.
“About 30 minutes later, we heard them fighting in the room
and somebody was hitting someone’s head on the wall. Chidinma did not
open the door. Later we did not hear their voices.
“About 30 minutes later, she opened the door and Morrison (Akinbule) was seen on the floor.
“He
was unconscious and he had an injury on his head, and had a cloth tied
to his neck. We rushed him to a hospital; then they (doctors) said he
was gone,” the post read in part.
