A 24-year-old girl, Miss Tosin Alabi, has reportedly been stabbed to death by her male partner over some unsolved issues.
Tosin, an apprentice in a computer institute was stabbed by her boy friend(name withheld at a popular hotel in Ado Ekiti, Ekiti State,  a couple of days ago.
Reasons why Tosin's lover decided to kill her girlfriend were unknown, but it was gathered that the two friends had gone to the hotel to cool off, but the male friend refused to fulfill the promise made to the deceased.
 According to the elder brother to the deceased, Elder Owolabi Paul, in Ado-Ekiti,  the incident occurred on Saturday, March 24, at a popular hotel in the town.
He said, “on Sunday, March 25, a friend of Toyin called us to inform us that she was stabbed to death with broken bottle at Festmag Hotel in Ado-Ekiti and that we should go to the State Teaching Hospital to see her corpse in the hospital’s morgue. We went there and confirmed her corpse.”
He said findings at the hotel revealed that trouble broke out between the lovers following alleged refusal of the boy friend to fulfill an earlier promise made to the girl before  sex.
Tosin was said to have challenged her boy friend on the need to redeem his pledge  and demanded that he keep his earlier promise.
It was gathered that the male friend shortly after a  heated argument, took an  empty bottles with which he allegedly stabbed Toyin on the neck and buttocks.
The deceased was said to have bled profusely, though  she was said to have been rushed to a nearby hospital but due to the absence of doctor to attend to her, Tosin was later rushed to the State Teaching Hospital, where she died.
Family of the deceased are  pleading with  the authorities of police and other security operatives to carry out a thorough investigation into the mysterious death of the deceased.
Elder Owolabi said,  police were yet to make any arrest since the killing was reported at the Ologede Police Station, Ajilosun, Ado-Ekiti.
He expressed his disappointment that the police had not invited the owner of the hotel for questioning since the report was lodged since Sunday.
“By now, the police ought to have been made some arrest including the owner of the hotel. The police said the father of Tosin’s boy friend was arrested but later released. We don’t know why they (police) should release the father whose son stabbed our sister.
“We want the police to do a thorough job; we are suspecting a foul play. The police is not making any effort to get to the root of the matter and we are disappointed,” the family’s spokesman lamented.
