An eyewitness said that the deceased said to be in her early 39 was stabbed several times at the neck and around the back of the armpit.
He also stabbed his girlfriend's mother when she tried to settle the issue between the two. She sustained serious injuries and was rushed to the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital where she is receiving treatment.
He promptly fled after then and is still on the run.
Prior to the tragic incident, the deceased who had been in a relationship with the suspect for some time, insisted that she could not marry him.
It was gathered that the duo went out on Sunday night and returned to the girl’s house later on, arguing. Early Monday morning, the argument resurfaced with the girl still maintaining her position. The young man was said to have allegedly threatened to kill the lady if she refused his proposal. It was at the height of the argument that the lady’s mother, who was around, came out of her room with the intention of settling the dispute.
The young man was said to have dashed to the kitchen where he allegedly brought out a knife with which he attacked the two women.
Another version of the incident claimed that the young man, who is currently on the run, had first reported for duty at his office (a telecommunication firm) located along the University of Ilorin road before he told his colleagues he wanted to go and pick something at home.
