Footballer stabs mechanic to death over age difference

20-year-old aspiring football player from Afikpo North, Ebonyi State, Jacob pictured above has been arrested by the Lagos state Police command for killing a mechanic, Moruf Sanni by stabbing him to death over an arguement regarding age difference at Iwaya,Yaba on Monday May 25th.

According to reports, the victim, Moruf had an argument and a fight with someone in his area simply identified as 'Somebody', over who was older on Sunday May 24th. The fight was  then settled by the elders in the area.

Angered by Moruf's claim that he was older and was not going to give him respect, 'Somebody' contacted his friend, Jacob to teach Moruf a lesson.

Jacob accosted the deceased in his compound and didn't teach him a lesson but stabbed him repeatedly on the neck and head and killed him. He was arrested by the residents of the area who witnessed the incident and chained to the corpse. 
Father of the deceased, Mr Lukman, who is a taxi driver, said he had gone in search of fuel and as he returned, a neighbor ran to his house to inform him that somebody was fighting his son
“Somebody ran to my house. He said a strange man was fighting with my son. I immediately rushed there, only to see the corpse of my son. The suspect was tied to my son’s corpse. I simply thanked him for killing my son and walked away.”
The victim's mother according to a relative of the deceased lost her mind immediately she saw her son's corpse because the deceased was the second son she had lost. 
 “February 20 of this year made it exactly 3 years that the first child of the family was killed. A police stray bullet hit him when the police came to look for some hoodlums. So, when this one happened again, their mother just ran away and has not been seen since then.”the relative said
A police source  who spoke on condition of anonymity said the suspect when interrogated gave a different version of events.
 “He said they went for a birthday party on Sunday night and it was there they had a disagreement. The following morning, he confronted Moruf and the deceased then brought out a knife which he collected from him. He said Moruf then got a bottle and it was while he wanted to block him from using it that it mistakenly stabbed him in the neck.”the police source said
The father of the deceased has asked for his son's body for burial but the corpse has been deposited at a mortuary while the police says they are investigating the matter.

This is an example of the things that happen in dis comment section. People don't respect other peoples opinions,Am sure if this was done in person someone would have killed another. Nigerians should learn to respect anybody's opinion despite whatever u feel towards that person.

They cannot charge him for 1st degree murder or manslaughter... So far the deceased use a. Weapon 1st, he'll hide under Self-Defence which is Appropriate in This kind of Case (Using Bottle to defend himself from Cutlass is a Legitimate Force)... He might be acquitted of this case If he has a good Lawyer

All the ppl abv talking trash abt ebonyi(abakaliki) ppl,only God knows the hell holes u ppl came from to be here judging ppl,what ever this stupid guy did,he did on his own.there are worst places in east dan abakaliki, eg Aba(ishi ala ngwa dat r cannibals),dont get me started on aba, imo(mba ise and the other mbas),enugu( enugu ezike) and anambra (onitsha touts and let's not forget okija). Then u go to the west,ogun state(home of ritualists) and don't get me started on the scary looking touts in lagos.then the north,where every guy, even kids carry dagger but all these doesn't stop me from friends wit ppl from these places or generalizing wen I see ppl from these place.so enuf of abakaliki bashing. In terms of development, I went to aba once and swore not to go dere again,so pls mind the problems in ur various states and leave ebonyi alone. Linda if u like post my comment,i hv been visiting dis blog for 4years and hv neva seen my coments

HMMMMMMMMM, LIFE DID NOT HAVE VALUE ANY MORE,TAKING SOMEONE LIFE JUST LIKE THAT OVER STUPID ARGUMENT. GOD WILL NEVER FORGIVE ANYONE WHO TAKE SOMEONE'S LIFE.

@Asa Chu, I guess you and the murderer are of the same phylum and same species. Ebonyi people are always like that and have this low mentality. If you investigate very well, you will see that the person the murderer went to fight for will be from Ebonyi too. Generally, if an Ebonyi man rent your house, just check his life style and see how he associate with others. The ebonyis I've met with in my entire life are all betrayals. I have spoken....... Gbam!!!

Dirt like u. Bitch of life. Available on this page 24-7. You're scum. I wonder what you look like. Keep wasting your life here

Anonymous said...

Don't mind the low lives dear. Imagine an Anambra person calling out on Ebonyi ppl! Why are Igbos hated nationwide? Isn't cos of Anambra ppl? Is it because we cover their ass?

Asa chu said...

@tboy(aka tout boy,trout mouth) am not the kind to curse but may u suffer a great explosive diarrhea b4 this week runs out for putting me and a murderer in the same spp, u must be an ill mannered and poorly brought up boy,u don't see me saying dat all the ppl from the stupid place u came from are ill mannered, I am from ebonyi,I was born and brought up in ebonyi, from a good family,grew up fine,didnt kill anyone. Had the same notion abt anambra ppl,how dey are all devilish and diabolic ,always using juju to harm others(the story of okija shrine made it worse),how deir men don't treat deir wives rite and guess wat I ended up marrying one(and he Is the best man in the world,the best decision I hv eva made,and his family are wonderful ppl) and wit kids now and still very much in love wit each other.my point being dat I learnt a lesson never to generalize. if u keep meeting ebonyi ppl dat are bad,its goes to show a lot abt ur character so GBAM!!!! to u too,u a**hole.
