A man identified as Solomon is on the run
after allegedly stabbing his girlfriend, Patience Zakkari, to death for
answering a phone a call from another man inside her home on Friday, January
24, 2020.

According to a resident in the area, there was
a heated argument between Solomon and Patience after Patience received the call
from a male friend in the middle of the night.

She recounted;

“She narrated to me before she died that everything happened at about 1:30 am on Friday morning. She said she received a phone call from just an ordinary male friend and her boyfriend (Solomon) got jealous, started harassing her verbally, and that as she was trying to explain to him, he pounced on her and started hitting her.

She took a bottle, hit him on the head in self-defence because the beating was too much for her, and the man picked up a knife in response and stabbed her at the back. She said she lost a lot of blood before she was rushed to a clinic in the morning where she was treated and brought back home in the evening, when she narrated the incident to me.

Unfortunately, when I left the place, I heard that the wound degenerated and she was rushed to a hospital where she eventually gave up” the source said

Confirming the incident, Kamal Abubakar, the state Police Public Relations Officer said the command was on the trail of the culprit and would soon be apprehended to face the wrath of the law.

“I can confirm to you that the incident is true; we got the information from a good samaritan that this was what happened in Gwallameji. When the incident happened, without informing the police, her friends took her to a clinic for treatment because the boyfriend stabbed her twice. However, the clinic also treated her without informing the police and discharged her the same day. When the thing became worse, they took her back to the clinic where she was put on a drip and eventually gave up. We have arrested the owner of the clinic and the staff that treated her because they did not inform the police.

“We have swung into action and the case is under investigation; we are on the trail of the suspect and anybody involved; they will all be brought to justice,” said the PPRO
