No wao! Wonders are
not likely to end soon…
According to a news
report from The Nation Newspaper, medical doctors at the Central
Hospital in Benin City are battling to save the life of one middle aged
man (name withheld), who was stabbed in the stomach by his landlord, simply
identified as Enogieru.
The report has it
that the victim was brought to the hospital at about 9:00am Wednesday by policemen
in a Hilux van. Eyewitnesses said the incident occurred at about 12:00midnight,
but the victim’s family has no vehicle or money to take him to the hospital.
A neighbor to the
victim said police told them there was no fuel in their vehicle to convey the
victim to the hospital and that was why the victim was covered with cloth till
daybreak.
The incident occurred
at No. 5 Ogiemwenken Street, Off St Saviour Road, Ikpoba Okha local government
area of Edo State.
A witness who gave
his name as Peter Igbinosun said the landlord ran away after stabbing the
victim.
Igbinosun explained
that trouble started on Tuesday night when both the landlord and tenant went to
a joint to take a drink.
He said the duo
fought over a girl.
“They came to me and
I settled the quarrel. I even asked this man to sleep in my house but he
refused.”
“He stabbed him at
about 12:00am and we didn’t have any money to go to the hospital. We went to
the police and they said they don’t have fuel to take him to the hospital.”
“The landlord has no
wife and he used bottle to stab this tenant many times.”
