Love War in Lagos as Lover stabs rival in the Eye on Christmas day

It was like a fairy tale but it happened. An angry lover on Christmas Day stabbed his rival in the eye and injured his heartthrob at Maza Maza in Amuwo Odofin local government area of Lagos State.

The angry lover identified as Kingsley was said to have arrived at his lover’s residence on Alahun Ozumba Street and waited for her for over eight hours, unknown to him that the girl (Amarachi) had gone out with another man identified as Kamoru.
LEADERSHIP Weekend gathered that when Amarachi arrived home accompanied by came back, Kingsley who had been drinking alcohol in the area before the duo returned began to yell at the girl.
An eyewitness who simply identified himself as Tayo, said Kingsley accused the girl of double-dealing, an accusation the girl neither denied nor accepted.
Tayo said a woman identified as Mama Chioma intervened by asking Amarachi to choose between the two men.
Tayo said when Mama Chioma asked Amarachi to say who she loved between the two, she responded, “I don’t know what to say. I love both of them.”
The source said at that juncture, Kingsley quickly grabbed a bottle, broke it and stabbed him (Kamoru) in the eye.
He said, “As if that was not enough, he also stabbed him on the right hand. Amarachi was begging him to stop the violence and instead of listening to the word of reason, he stabbed her on the shoulder. Some young men came and immediately he sighted them, he took to his heels. They gave him a hot chase but he managed to escape.”
The girl was said to have confessed that Kingsley gave her N30,000 for Christmas and she promised to go out with him on the fateful day only for Kamoru to arrive her home earlier and she had to follow him to an undisclosed destination before Kingsley could arrive.
The girl said she had the premonition that Kingsley could be somewhere close to her residence saying that she advised Kamoru to go back, promising to see him yesterday and he agreed. She said she was surprised to see him by his side when she was almost close to the passage door of her residence. “Before I could utter a word, Kingsley appeared from nowhere, screaming at me. I told him to calm down but he refused.
“I perceived the odour of alcohol oozing from his mouth. He told me about a year ago that he hated alcohol and had not tasted it for over 10 years,” she said.
