The suspect, identified as Lintex from Otukpo, Benue State, allegedly gained access to the estate where Deborah resided on Wednesday night by disguising as a dispatch rider.
When security personnel became suspicious, he reportedly scaled the perimeter fence to enter the compound.
According to activist Meddy Olotu, the suspect first attempted to sabotage the gas pipeline outside the apartment in what appeared to be an effort to trigger an explosion.
After that failed, he forcibly broke into Deborah’s residence, where he attacked her with a knife and inflicted multiple stab wounds that led to her death.
Family sources said Deborah had ended the relationship over a year ago, but the suspect persistently harassed her and issued threats.
“They have broken up for more than a year now, but this guy refused to move on. He keeps making statements like, ‘If I don’t have you, nobody will. If I don’t marry you, blood will flow,’” her sister recalled.
She added that Deborah, who had just finished her National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, assignment and was pursuing a career in interior decoration, had been ignoring persistent calls and advances from her former partner.
“She was only trying to find her feet when this tragedy struck,” the sister said.
Neighbors overpowered the suspect after the attack and handed him over to the police.
He is currently in custody as the victim’s family and rights groups demand justice and urge authorities not to allow the case to be swept under the carpet.
