Nigerian Man Stabs Friend To Death Over Messi - Ronaldo Argument

oh no! See what the extreme love for Messi and Christiano has caused.

Police in Mumbai, India, yesterday arrested a 22-year-old Chukwuma Nwabu who murdered his friend, 34-year-old Durumchukwu Obinna Michael, during a football argument on who between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo was a better player.

The unfortunate incidence reportedly took place at a mutual friend’s house where Michael had gone to celebrate his birthday. After the party which started Saturday, many of their friends left by Sunday morning, leaving behind only Nwabu and Michael who were watching football. The two kicked off a discussion that soon degenerated into a violent argument over their favourite stars.

According to reports, Nwabu, who supports Ronaldo, hit Michael, and in retaliation, Michael hurled a tumbler at him. But the glass missed its mark and smashed against the wall. Infuriated, Nwabu grabbed a shard and stabbed Michael in the throat. Michael bled to death.
