An 18- year-
old 200-level student of Statistics at the University of Abuja, Awal Sani, was
on Thursday January 11th, stabbed to death by his mother's rival during a
family
fued at their home in the Kubwa area of the Federal Capital Territory
Abuja. The Nation reports that Sani's stepmum, Rukayat Abdulkareem had
confronted her mate, Sani's mother, over their missing husband.
It was while
Sani was trying to calm his stepmum that she stabbed him to death.
Younger
brother to the victim’s mother who narrated the unfortunate incident, said
“Between
10:00 p.m. and 10.30 p.m,, I heard someone banging on the door and I came
outside, I asked her what she wanted and she said she was looking for her
husband. I know the woman, they were living close to us here in Pipeline before
they packed to Kaduna road. I told her that I would check and see if I can call
the husband for her. I went inside, I met my sister and informed her that the
man’s wife was outside looking for him, my sister said she was going to meet
the woman, I tried to stop her and told her she was not the one the woman came
for but she insisted. So I followed her because I didn’t want any problem. We
met the woman and then I realised that if they start talking, it may result to
another thing. So, I asked my sister to go inside and went to pipeline police
station. I invited a policeman, he asked the woman what the problem was, she
said she was here to see her husband. The policeman asked her to follow him to
the station so she can write a statement and they will return to pick her
husband. But she said she was not going anywhere so the policeman left. I went
inside the house and the next thing I heard was that they had stabbed Awal. I
rushed out, we did all we could to save him. We rushed him to the hospital and
the doctor confirmed him dead and we brought him back home. She had left when I
rushed out but the vigilante men caught and brought her later and we kept her
till the police arrived''
The deceased
was meant to have returned to school on Monday January 15th
