Chibuzor Nwafor has been arrested by the police for stabbing his friend and neighbour, Amarana Chikezie, in the heart, following a disagreement over power connection at their residence in Kado-Kuchi behind Next Shopping plaza, Jabi, Abuja.
Amarana, 23, a graduate of Community Development from Enugu State University of Science and Technology, was certified dead on arrival at the Gwarimpa General Hospital.
Amarana’s elder sister, Precious, said the deceased was stabbed in the heart leading to his demise shortly after. She explained that Nwafor and her brother were friends, stressing that the murder of Amarana was premeditated.
Their mutual friend explained that the deceased was planning to join the Nigerian Air Force before his death. He said that the deceased was initially rushed to a pharmacist after he was stabbed, who declined to treat him unless there was a police report.
He further stated that Chibuzor was tricked to the hospital where he was arrested by policemen who were waiting for him.
