Matthew Iyede, a twenty-five year-old man, has been killed.
The man was stabbed to death by three friends over an alleged
disagreement over a girlfriend at Eku, Ethiope East Local Government
Area of Delta State.
According to The Punch, it was gathered that the incident occurred
on Sunday morning at a popular drinking bar, Blue Sea Restaurant and
Bar, in Eku, near Delta State University Abraka.
Eyewitnesses revealed that the victim died immediately, following multiple stabs he sustained on his chest.
The Punch reports that the late Matthew was ambushed by armed
youths alleged to have been led by one Ese Uku. Ese was alleged to have
warned the victim to steer clear of the girl whom Matthew had reportedly
been dating for long.
The victim’s relative, Victor Iyede, confirmed the incident to our
correspondent on the phone. Victor claimed that his brother was killed
over a girl he had been dating.
Victor said, “Matthew was stabbed at a plaza closer to Eku Town
hall. He was stabbed over a girl. Those involved are at large. Their
names have been submitted to the police.”
The spokesman of the Delta State Police Commander, SP Celestina
Kalu, confirmed the incident when contacted. She said two of the
suspects had been arrested by the police in Abraka.
“The vigilante group, in collaboration with the Police,
arrested two suspects in respect of the case. The names of the suspects
are Kevwe Edward (21 years old) and Lucky Grant (19 years old). The
suspects will be transferred to SCIIDC for discreet investigation and
diligent prosecution,” Kalu said.
She added that Matthew’s corpse has been deposited at the Eku General hospital pending further investigation by the police.
