Couple Stabs Neighbour In Defence Of Their Fowls In Lagos

A 35-year-old man, Charles Christopher, and his wife, Oluseyi, 31 have been arrested by the police for allegedly stabbing a businesswoman, Glory Ubi, in the chest.

According to reports, the couple who live on Pasheda Awoyaya Street, in the Ibeju Lekki area of Lagos State had a disagreement with Ubi, which degenerated into a fight on March 16.

In the words of Ubi who reported the incident at the Elemoro Police Division:

“I saw him breaking the legs of my chickens for no reason and I confronted him, but instead of apologising, he shouted at me and stabbed me in the chest....I went to report the matter to the police and he was arrested....I then went to treat myself, but when I returned home, his wife came after me with a blade, which she used to cut me in the breast. I started bleeding profusely. She threw stones
into my room and broke my television set in the process.”

However, Oluseyi denied the allegation, saying....

“We were both fighting but I don’t know how she came about the cut on her breast and I also did not throw stones into her house or broke her television set.”

The case is however still under investigation.
