A 22-year-old part-time student of Lagos State Polytechnic, Olayinde Bournes, was allegedly been beaten to death by her boyfriend, Abuchi Cyril. The sad incident happened on Thursday, February 21 at Shorinmade Street, Aguda-Ogba area of Lagos State.
Titilayo Fagbamila, a friend of the deceased said Olayinde always complained to her that her boyfriend, Abuchi is fond of beating her at the slightest provocation.
She said on Thursday when the tragedy occurred, Abuchi invited Olayinde to his house along Shorinmade Street, to see his travel documents.
Titilayo said nobody knew what happened when the lovers were together but it is believed that they had a misunderstanding which may have led to a fight.
Sources at 17, Muibi Street residence of the deceased told PM News that after the fight with her boyfriend, the victim was rushed to G&S Hospital where she was confirmed dead before the corpse was taken to Ikeja General Hospital for autopsy.
Abuchi was immediately arrested and taken to Area ‘G’ Police Command, Ogba, for interrogation. The suspect was seen writing his statement at Area ‘G’, Ogba, Friday morning.
The Area ‘G’ Commander, Assistant Commissioner of Police, Mr. Ishola Abdulahi, declined to speak on the issue, saying it was too early as investigation was going on.
However, the 55-year old father of Olayinde, Mr. Akindele Bournes, said his late daughter was not a troublesome person. He insisted that justice must be done in the matter.

ReplyDeleteThis boy is an animal especially wife beater. How on earth can you beat your fellow human being, when you said you lover her. Well this young girl should rest in peace. But its a lesson for others to be very careful, dont ever date or married a man dat beats.
