According to him, the assailants attempted to snatch Faith’s bag and phone, but she resisted.
In the ensuing struggle, one of the assailants st3bbed Faith in the neck with a knife, resulting in her d3ath.
Faith’s body has been deposited in a mortuary.
“This is what happened With Faith, An Igede Girl Who Dïed This Morning In Lagos. The person that narrated the story in the video we all watched a few minutes ago was wrong. Faith was not k!lled by her boyfriend, and they didn’t remove her brêãsts and pr!vate parts. Truly, she visited her boyfriend’s house last night. While she was coming back very early in the morning today, in the process of crossing the road she met suspected armëd røbbers,” he wrote.
“According to the guy who is currently in the mortuary now with other Igede people, those guys attempted to snatch her bag and phone. In the ensuing struggle, one of the boys stãbbed her in the neck with a knife, leading to her untimely demise, as she was bleed!ng through out without help she d!ed.
“They confirmed the only injury found on her body was the knife wøund on her neck. Her body has been deposited in a mortuary, and plans are underway to return her remains to Igede for burial. May her soul rest in peace.”
