Yusuf Monsurat (23), a student of D.S. Adegbenro
Polytechnic, Itori, Ogun State pictured above has been
arrested by the Ogun state Police command for stabbing
her colleague, Eric Moses, to death in their school hostel
following an argument on March 17th.
According to Tribune, Monsurat who claims not to know
how the incident happened, was a close friend of the
deceased until she began to suspect him of being a cult
member.
This made her withdraw from him and even withdrew
more after Eric confessed to her that he was indeed a cult
member.
Monsurat says she had a dream on the day of the incident
and in the dream, she saw Moses and herself engaged in a
quarrel, and Moses slapped her in the dream.
She said as soon as she woke up, she approached one of
her friends who she narrated her dream to.
As she was narrating her story, she said Moses overheard,
approached her and picked a quarrel with her.
An argument ensued and before she knew it, Moses began
beating her.
She claims Moses then picked up a knife to stab her but
she defended herself and the knife pierced his neck,
leading to his death.
“I am from Kwara State. I am in my second year studying
Business Administration. I can’t really remember what
happened. Only God knows. He was my hostel mate.
Sincerely, speaking, I can’t really remember anything. God
knows. I have not been feeling fine.
It is just like a dream. We had a normal argument that
could come up between students that day.
I sat in front of my room when he came. All I remember
was that he wanted to stab me with a knife.
We started struggling with the knife and in the process of
defending myself, the knife pierced his chest.
He later fell. I don’t know what came over him that made
him take a knife to want to stab me.”she said
Ogun state Police command spokesperson, Olumuyiwa
Adejobi confirmed the incident and said she will be
charged to court soon.
