Nigeria: man stabs friend to death over food

A man has lost his life after his friend stabbed him to death over an argument on who to pay for a plate of food in the Ifako Ijaiye Local Government Area of Lagos State, Nigeria.

“The suspect went and ate a plate of food in their usual buka and after eating instead of paying he asked them to add his bill to the account of his friend who wasn’t there with him at that time,” a resident narrated.

The victim was surprised and angry that his friend would ask them to bill him without even telling him about it.

The two men had a misunderstanding and in the course of the argument that degenerated into a fight, the suspect stabbed the victim to death with a knife.

“The victim defecated on himself before he died on the spot,” according to resident.

“The suspect wanted to escape the scene but was caught by some young men in the area,” reports said.

The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, confirmed the incident, adding that the suspect had already been taken to the State Criminal Investigations Department.
