Mrs. Rabiat Oyenuga, the wife of a retired Assistant Commissioner of Police, has been accused of crushing two children - David and Elizabeth Lawani, to death.

It was learnt that Rabiat, also hit the children’s mother, Ibiyemi, with her car along Apapa Road, Ebute-Meta, Lagos on Sunday.

Ibiyemi, who is in a critical condition at the Federal Medical Centre, Ebute Meta, and her children were returning from a church service when the incident occurred.

Ibiyemi’s husband, Oluwaseyi, said that shortly before the accident, his wife called him with a pay phone that she and the children were going to Christ Apostolic Church (Chapel of Testimony parish), Apapa Road.

He said, “I should have gone with them but I was invited to perform with a choir at another church. So, I told Ibiyemi that I would pick them up later at the church they were to attend.

“Unfortunately, it rained heavily on that day. So, I was unable to meet them as planned.” Unknown to Oluwaseyi, that was the last time he would see his children alive.

He said, “Around 2pm, while I was still in the church, I received a call from the same number, which my wife had earlier used, that she and my children were involved in an auto accident on Apapa Road.

“I left the church immediately and on getting to the scene, I saw blood all over the ground and a Toyota Sienna with registration number FR 902 LND parked nearby.

“After inquiring from eyewitnesses, I was told that my family had been taken to Lagos University Teaching Hospital, Idi Araba.”

House Maid Stabs Footballer To Death!

Pandemonium broke out recently when a 19-year old boy, Arochukwu Eze was stabbed to death by a 21-year-old girl, Gloria Effiong. The tragic incident occurred at No.6 Gbadebo Street, Ijesha Lagos, where both the victim and his attacker lived with their respective guardians. They were said to have a history of inexplicable enmity.

The ugly incident took place on the morning of September 13, 2011, when the two rivals met at the tap downstairs. One of the eye witnesses, Ijoma Hyacinth, narrated the plot of the cold murder:

 “I was in my house when I sighted her stabbing him with a dagger. As she was stabbing him, the boy was running and screaming. By the time he was rescued from the hand of his aggressor, the 19-year-old had lost so much blood from his fatal wound that he died soon after even as spirited efforts were made to get him to the hospital, where he was pronounced Dead On Arrival.”

The alleged killer, Gloria Effiong, who is a house maid to one of the tenants, Mr. and Mrs. Maurice Ekpanam, lamented that her action was not premeditated. According to the 21-year-old maid, she only brought out the dagger to scare him away when a fight ensued between them.
