Operatives of the Delta State Police Command have arrested a 21-year-old woman identified as Bina for allegedly stabbing her live-in partner to death during a domestic dispute.

The Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) of the command, SP Bright Edafe, made the disclosure in a video shared on his official X (formerly Twitter) handle on Wednesday.

According to Edafe, the suspect had been cohabiting with the deceased, a 34-year-old man, for the past four years. The tragic incident reportedly occurred after a heated argument, during which Bina allegedly stabbed him in the chest.

In the video released by the police, the young woman confessed to committing the crime. She further revealed that she had been living with the deceased since the age of 17 and had two children with him.

“Now she had a fight with him, stabbed the guy in the heart and killed him. Who do you blame? The girl, the society or her parents who couldn’t raise her and gave her out at 17 without a bride price? Her English is so fluent, and she stopped schooling at SS2,” Edafe lamented in his post.

The Delta State Police Command has confirmed that investigations are ongoing, while the suspect remains in custody.
