An 18-year-old girl, Abosede, said to be a sex worker, has been arrested for allegedly stabbing her boyfriend to death during an argument over N3,000.
The incident occurred in a community in Sagamu area of Ogun State.
There were different accounts as to how life was snuffed out of the deceased, Aliu Ibrahim.
A version of the account alleged that the suspect was a commercial sex worker who bargained for N3,000 with the deceased for a night, over the weekend.
Trouble, however, erupted when the deceased was said to have refused to pay the suspect, an action that resulted in a verbal confrontation between the duo.
The quarrel degenerated into a fight, during which the suspect allegedly thrust a knife into the deceased chest.

She admitted to have spent the night with him, adding that when leaving next day, she attempted to collect her boyfriend’s N3,000 that was inside his pocket.
She said: “He said he would not give me all the money and we started quarreling. He was the one that brought the knife. While dragging it with him, it stabbed him in the chest.”
