Landlord’s son stabs tenant’s
wife; beats her comatose
Doctors at Araba Medical Hospital in Abule-Egba
area of Lagos are trying their best on a newly-
wedded woman, who was allegedly stabbed many
times by her landlord’s son for allowing a man,
considered as an enemy of the landlord, into her
apartment at Ishaga Street.
The visitor was said to have been banned from
entering the house by the landlord.
The victim, Mrs. Taiwo Kehinde, however,
expressed gratitude to God for bringing her out
of coma. According to her, “my landlord’s son,
Jimoh Yusuf, attacked me right inside my
apartment with broken bottles. My sin was that
my husband allowed one of his friends into our
apartment.
“I was returning from my shop last Friday, when I
met this family friend, Monday Michael, who lives
opposite us. He told me to leave the house that
my husband and our landlord’s son were
quarrelling. “I decided to go inside and change
into something else. The family friend left for his
house, while I entered our apartment. “I was
trying to change my wears when Jimoh barged
inside and started shouting.
He said ‘I have told you and your husband that I
don’t want to see that man (family friend)
anywhere close to this house. But you wouldn’t
obey. I am going to kill you before your husband
comes back’. “Before I knew it, he broke the
bottles in his hands and started stabbing me all
over my body, until I passed out. This is not the
first time he has beaten me. I am not his wife,
neither am I related to him.” Genesis Her
husband, Mayowa Kehinde, traced the genesis of
his problem with the suspect to the visit of
Michael, few hours before his wife was attacked.
He said: “My friend, Monday, came to visit me
that day. But when my landlord saw him, he
ordered him to leave his house, even when I tried
to explain that he was my visitor and that we
have known each other long before I moved into
his house. “I reluctantly saw my friend off at
about 9p.m. By then, my wife was not back. On
my way back, I was welcomed with shouts by my
neighbours to quickly rush in, that Jimoh wanted
to kill my wife. “When I rushed inside, my wife
was in a pool of her blood, while Jimoh still held
onto the broken bottles. I held him as he tried to
escape from the scene, while a woman rushed to
the police station to report the incident the
matter.”
Neighbours’ reaction
When Vanguard visited the couple’s residence,
neighbours alleged that the suspect was always
attacking them, particularly the women. One of
them, who spoke on the condition of anonymity,
said: “We have suffered untold pains in the hands
of Jimoh but this is the height. “The most
painful aspect of it is that his parents are always
supporting him. If you attempt to call the police,
they will threaten to issue you quit notice.by chibabynaija1
