29 year-old Ekanem Enodan has been arrested by Lagos state Police Command for allegedly stabbing his friend to death during an argument over payment for N50 bottle water at Oke-Ira area, Ogba, Lagos.
The deceased, identified Nicolas Goddonu, 46, a commercial motorcyclist was said to have visited Ekanem at the shop, in the company of one of his brothers.
Tragedy struck after the visiting father of five collected bottled water from Enodan’s shop and attempted to hurriedly leave, without paying. However, the shop owner was alleged to have hit him with a bottle, causing the fleeing motorcyclist to slump.
Apparently thinking he was pretending, Enodan as gathered, collected his bottled water and went inside his shop. An alarm raised by the commercial motorcyclist’s brother, on noticing that he was not breathing , jolted everyone at the junction. He was subsequently rushed to the Ifako General Hospital, where he was confirmed dead.
There were, however, conflicting accounts from eyewitnesses as to how the father of five died. While some of them alleged that the suspect stabbed him to death, others said he merely pushed him, causing him to hit his head on a hard object.
