Naval officer kills girlfriend in Lagos

Tragedy struck, Saturday, at the Nigerian Navy Base, Ojo, Lagos State, when a Naval officer stabbed his girl friend to death.

The officer, identified simply as Harry, was said to have engaged his girl friend, Itoya, who also is a naval personnel, in a fight over claims of infidelity.

Vanguard gathered that the deceased officer who hails from Edo State, met her untimely death, when her boyfriend who had just returned from a Joint Task Force mission in Jos, Plateau State, attacked her in their apartment, while she was sleeping and stabbed her severally while he also stabbed himself. Neighbours who heard screams from the apartment rushed in only to find Itoya lying in a pool of blood.

She was rushed to a naval hospital in the base, but she died on the way to the hospital.

Sources at the Ojo Naval Base told Vanguard that Harry, who sustained some injuries during the scuffle, has also been placed under arrest at the Naval hospital Ojo.

Efforts by Vanguard, to get comments from Harry, proved abortive as security at the naval hospital was tight, but a hospital source, who craved for anonymity told vanguard that Harry regret his action and blamed it on the devil.

  :'( :'( :'( :'(  Sounds like infidelity was suspected - even though - she does not deserve to die. May she RIP ... and her killer pay to the furthest extent of the law.
