In any game, there is bound to be a loser and a winner. Probably, two friends, Ismail Adeniyi (23) and Olu Afolabi, did not realise this when they settled down to play ludo, an indoor game on Sunday.

After rounds of game, PUNCH METRO learnt that the two friends had a disagreement, which degenerated into a fisticuffs resulting in the death of 18-year-old Afolabi.

It was learnt that Adeniyi stabbed Afolabi to death with a broken bottle.

Narrating his ordeal in tears, Adeniyi said, “Around 7.30am on Sunday, Afolabi and I were playing a game of ludo. Afolabi, who lost the game, became angry and began to insult me. The argument escalated and he punched me in the mouth before breaking a bottle and threatening to stab me.

“Immediately, I went to get a broken bottle and as we began to fight, I stabbed him in the chest. When I discovered the extent of his injury, I went to get help but unfortunately, he died.”

Adeniyi told PUNCH METRO that he and Afolabi were co-workers in a painting workshop and had been friends for years, adding that he did not know that what started as an altercation would lead to his friend’s death.

He said, “This act was the handiwork of the devil. I have never commited any crime before. If the police can pardon me and if the deceased’s family can drop all charges against me, I promise never to kill again.

“In fact, I promise to take care of Afolabi’s parents as an act of contrition. I will remain indebted to his family forever.”

Afolabi, who denied being under the influence of any substance, said his mother had being hospitalised ever since his arrest.

“My mother fainted immediately she heard that I had killed Afolabi. My father is late and because we are poor, my mother was not able to send me to school. If I go to prison, she will not recover from the shock of my being jailed. I pray that God sees me through this,” he added.

The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Samuel Jinadu, said the incident happened on June 19, 2011, at 33, Omidiji Street Okeodo in Lagos, adding that “Adeniyi stabbed Afolabi to death in a fight. Afolabi was later rushed to Isolo General Hospital where he gave up the ghost.”

“Meanwhile, Adeniyi has committed murder and will be charged for it. I use this medium to appeal to parents and guardians to warn their children and wards to be of good behaviour and not to foment trouble as whoever foments trouble in any area will be sanctioned.”

Fool! You are the devil in human form. You support anything evil and encourage people to be like you. Listern; no one can be stupid like you. Every wrong doing is influenced by the devil who uses human being as a weapon to perform his will. He has lots of agents like you and the guy who commited such a crime. Looking at the picture above, you guys even look like twins. I have no reason to even read the story posted. I'm sure i can hear directly from the horses mouth (you) cos u were fully involved and know all about the incident. Pls tell me why did u encourage this he-goat to kill someone? where is your conscience? That ur life is finished and ur whole world has crushed down doesnt warrant you to take someone else's life. Ohhh no!! Wickedness is not good.

Easy my dear Open_ reality. Please don't start. Read his comment carefully, he meant no harm, please.
