“I have just finished my PDG, hoping to start my Masters and get my COREN as an engineer, that is the plan who had in this family before they killed my husband.
“How do I pay my children’s school fees, where do I live? My husband is the only one helping me… Please help me, help me,” she was seen crying.
Dave, a sound Engineer in Lagos said to be on his way to an event at Admiralty area of Lekki. He on the same motorbike (Okada) with a keyboardist named Philip.
They were said to have had an argument with the bike man, an Hausa man over N100 which resulted in a fight.
