A serving corps member, identified as Princess Odume, has been arrested by the police for allegedly hacking lover to death with a machete.
The young woman, who is said to be a graduate of University of Nigeria, Nsukka, Enugu State, was stripped naked and humiliated by neighbours of the deceased who caught her trying to scale the fence with the cutlass.
According to an eyewitness account, Odume was caught on Sunday at Abak Road after neighbours saw the corpse of the yet-to-be identified man lying in a pool of blood with several cuts on his body.
A Facebook user, who was at the scene of the incident, posted on his timeline;
I saw a large crowd gathered at abak road by Afahaoffot so I ran there behold I this young lady been beaten and stripped totally naked.
I immediately tried to gather information there and everyone there said that She was found this morning around 9.30am trying to jump the fence of a young guy she went for hook-up with. Blood stains were all over her so she was caught and beaten to stupor and also stripped NAKED. (I won’t be able to post the video on my timeline cos it’s so disgusting).
According to the people at the scene, said she matchet a young guy to death this morning whom she went out with. She killed the young guy instantly after several cuts on his stomach and face, on trying to jump out from the fence she was caught.
The young lady is my friend here on Facebook and a core member, so pls I call on her parent to run to the police Headquarters in Akwa Ibom for the case of Odume Princess Paschaline.
I feel pity for her cos the devil actually used her this morning to perform such wonders. Some bike men there said that she Is used to sending them ikong Ekpo always ever since she was deployed to Akwa Ibom for her NYSC.
May the soul of the young man Rest in PEACE.
Akwa Ibom State Police Public Relations Officer, Odiko Ogbeche-Macdon, who confirmed the incident to SaharaReporters, said the culprit had been arrested and that the police had begun investigating the issue.
He stated;
