Man arrested for killing sugar mummy in Delta
A man identified as Akpoveta School has allegedly stabbed his ‘sugar mummy’, Gloria Akpaku, to death over her failure to give him N100,000.

This was disclosed by the Delta Police Public Relations Officer, Bright Edafe, via his official X handle on Tuesday.

Akpoveta revealed that the deceased had promised to give him money on her return from the market but he threatened to disclose their secret relationship to her child.

This angered her, prompting Glory to decide not to give him the money anymore.

According to him, the threat  from his alleged lover infuriated him, which led him to stab her with a knife in the neck, hand, and stomach.

Akpoveta narrated in pidgin English (now translated), “She asked me to save some money with her and that she would return the money to me later. But when I needed the money, she refused to give it to me. Rather, she became angry.

“She asked me to escort her to the market, and I thought she would give me the money, but she insisted that she would give it to me after she returned from the market.

“I told her that I would tell her child, and she said if I told the child, she would not return my money. While she was going in front, I took a knife that I had with me and stabbed her in the neck, hand, and stomach.”

The suspect stated further that he regretted his action but blamed the devil for it.

Reacting to the confession, Edafe urged members of the public to learn from it.

The PPRO wrote, “I share stories like this so we can learn from the mistakes of others. So this suspect allegedly murdered his sugar mummy over her failure to give him back the money she was helping him save. When asked why he did it, he said, ‘NA DEVIL WORK’.”

Meanwhile, giving further updates on the incident, the PPRO noted that the incident happened in April and the suspect would be charged in court upon the conclusion of the ongoing investigation.

“The incident happened in April. He will be charged in court as soon as the investigation is concluded,” Edafe concluded.
