Police in Ondo State have arrested a young woman, Augustina Mowari, for allegedly stabbing her boyfriend, Michael Ikuedowoni, to death during a heated argument over suspected infidelity.
The tragic incident occurred over the weekend in Okitipupa Local Government Area, where the couple lived together in a one-room apartment. Eyewitnesses said the argument escalated quickly after Augustina accused Michael of being unfaithful, leading her to stab him in the leg with a pair of scissors.
Michael was rushed to a medical centre where he received initial treatment and was discharged. However, his condition worsened at home, prompting a return to the hospital on Sunday night. He was confirmed dead shortly after.
Confirming the incident, the Police Public Relations Officer, SP Olayinka Ayanlade, said the suspect is currently in custody and will be charged to court after investigations are concluded.
