Abia State.
It was learnt that Abel, a final year student of the Department of Architecture, allegedly stabbed the victim in the stomach during a disagreement at the lodge.
What happened? Landlord had ordered that no girlfriend is allowed to spend the night in the lodge.
But the guy, Abel, was alleged to have breached the rule and was challenged by the landlord, which led to a fight between them. In the ensuing scuffle, the guy was alleged to have grabbed a knife and stabbed the victim in the stomach, before taking to his heels.
Sadly, the landlord reportedly died on the spot.
His remains were recovered by the police and deposited in a mortuary.
A student of the institution, who identified herself only as Beatrice, told Punch that the caretaker of the lodge was the first to notice the breach of the rule, adding that he informed the landlord.
She said, “The incident happened around 9pm on June 29. The deceased had made a rule that no student living in the lodge should bring a lady to pass the night there. He also made it a rule that every visitor, be it male or female, must leave before night falls.
“However, the suspect brought home a female guest in the evening and both of them went inside his room. The caretaker of the lodge saw them and waited for them to come out, but they didn’t. He then put a call through to the landlord, who hurriedly went to the building around 9pm.
“On arrival, the landlord barged into the student’s room where he met both the lady and the student n*ked. Instead of excusing himself, he attacked the student with punches. The lady quickly grabbed a wrapper and ran out of the room into another student’s room in the lodge.
“As the confrontation continued, the student stabbed the landlord with a knife, put on his boxers and fled that night, leaving the landlord dead in his room.”
Police have launched a manhunt for the guy with his picture posted at strategic areas in the school.
