A 33-year-old man, Otobong Enyietim Akpan, has been arrested and remanded in prison for allegedly stabbing a security guard, Adamu Muhammed, in the neck and head with a knife after being prevented from having sex with his girlfriend at a security post in Lekki, Lagos.

According to the police, the incident occurred on 2 March, 2025, when Akpan took his girlfriend to the security post at 35B, Land Bridge Avenue, Oniru Estate, Victoria Island, intending to engage in sexual activity.

Enraged by the rejection, Akpan reportedly threatened to kill Muhammed and left the scene, only to return moments later.

In a violent outburst, he allegedly pulled a knife from his trousers and stabbed the security man multiple times, leaving him bleeding profusely from the neck and head.
