Afeez Agboola, 40, had attended Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP), ward meeting at Orile Iganmu, Lagos, that fateful January 11, 2011, with the hope of coming back home to meet members of his family.

The meeting ended came to a close quite alright, but Afeez didn’t make it to his house at Igando, a Lagos suburb, as he was stabbed to death by one Ahmed Fatai.

The deceased had tried to save Ahmed’s mother, whose son (Ahmed), armed with knife, was pursuing her, as she kept screaming for help. But in an attempt to intervene he lost his own life in the process.


When Daily Sun visited Moshalashi Street, where the incident occurred, people gathered round the body of the husband of three wives, who was in the pool of blood.

One of the eyewitnesses, who spoke to the reporter on the condition of anonymity, painted a graphic picture of how the meeting ended and Afeez getting ready to go home before he saw the armed Ahmed pursuing his mother.


“Ahmed’s mother was screaming for help, pleading with the son to spare her life. Afeez went to rescue her, but Ahmed stopped, stared at his face and stabbed him in the neck and chest,” he said.

Ahmed’s father was said to have hired a tricycle known in Lagos as Keke Marwa to rush him to the hospital, but it was too late as the Good Samaritan died few minutes later.


Afeez, a shoemaker, lived at Orile- Iganmu for many years, before he packed into his own house at Igando with his third wife, Taiye, who is said to be five months pregnant. His first widow, Nuratu, who disclosed that they had been married for the past 20 years, said they were friends, before they decided to get married.


She said: “He was my boyfriend, when he was in Boys Academy, Lagos. I’m his first wife. This is his second wife (pointing at a woman). Her name is Kudirat. The third wife is five months pregnant and she is living at Igando. “My husband was a successful shoemaker, and was popular man, I have two boys for him. “He once had a shop at Baale Street, Orile -Iganmu, before he moved to Lagos Island and later, Igando.
