A 25-year-old bricklayer, Akinloye Anuoluwapo, has been arrested by the
police for slaughtering his 21-year-old girlfriend, Rafiyat Akinyemi.
Anuoluwapo slit Akinyemi’s throat at her family home in Magbon, Ogijo, Ogun state.
PUNCH Metro gathered that Anuoluwapo allegedly murdered Akinyemi for her refusal to continue dating him.
An OND graduate of the Lagos State Polythenic Ikorodu, Akinyemi was said
to be home alone last Wednesday, when Anuoluwapo came calling.
PUNCH Metro gathered that the embattled lovers, who had dated for over a
year, split up late 2012 despite attempts by Anuoluwapo to prevent it.
It was learnt that Anuoluwapo knew that Akinyemi’s mother and siblings usually left the house before 8am each working day.
