Police arrest man who ‘stabbed lover to death over N100K’ in Delta

The police command in Delta says its operatives have arrested one Akpoveta School, for stabbing Glory Akpaku, his lover, over N100,000, to death.

In a clip shared by Bright Edafe, police spokesperson in Delta, on Tuesday, the suspect confessed to stabbing Akpaku three times for failing to fulfil her promise of giving him the money.

The suspect said he threatened to reveal their secret relationship when the late Akpaku declined to give him the money.

“When I asked her for the N100,000 and she did not give it to me, I was angry, and we went our separate ways that night,” he said.

“Around 4 am in the morning, on our way to the market, I threatened to tell her kid about our relationship, but she told me to go ahead.

“So, I allowed her to walk a few meters away from me, and I stabbed her with a knife. I stabbed her three times. At her neck, hand, and stomach.”

One month ago, police arrested eight suspects in connection with the murder of six officers, who were on a fact-finding mission in the Ughelli area of Delta state.
