A report by PUNCH Metro stated that the final-year student of the Department of Architecture allegedly stabbed the victim in the stomach during a disagreement at the lodge.
It was disclosed that the late landlord had ordered that no female visitor was allowed to spend the night in the lodge and the suspect was alleged to have breached the rule and was challenged when a fight ensued between them. The landlord was said to have died on the spot while the suspect took to his heels. . Reacting to the tragedy, a student of the institution who identified herself only as Beatrice revealed that the caretaker of the house was the first to observe the breach, and immediately reported to the landlord. She said the landlord barged into the room and met Abel and his girlfriend naked, which caused the fight.
She said, “The incident happened around 9pm on June 29. The deceased had made a rule that no student living in the lodge should bring a lady to pass the night there. He also made it a rule that every visitor, be it male or female, must leave before night falls. “However, the suspect brought home a female guest in the evening and both of them went inside his room. The caretaker of the lodge saw them and waited for them to come out, but they didn’t. He then put a call through to the landlord, who hurriedly went to the building around 9pm. “On arrival, the landlord barged into the student’s room where he met both the lady and the student naked. Instead of excusing himself, he attacked the student with punches. The lady quickly grabbed a wrapper and ran out of the room into another student’s room in the lodge. “As the confrontation continued, the student stabbed the landlord with a knife, put on his boxers and fled that night, leaving the landlord dead in his room.”
“I, however, want to advise him that he should submit himself to the police voluntarily. I assure that wherever he decides to go, we will get him and he will face justice.” However, efforts to reach the school authorities proved abortive as the official telephone line on the school’s website was switched off.
