A married woman, Funmilola Osundare has narrowly escaped death in Akure, the Ondo state capital, after her yet to be identified boyfriend, suspected to be a ritualist butchered her.
Vanguard reports that Funmilola was invited to the house her footballer boyfriend rented in ljapo, GRA, Akure three days before the attack. She was reportedly having a nice time with him when he allegedly attacked her, leaving her with varying degrees of matchet cuts on her face, shoulders and hands.
Her cries for help attracted neighbours, who invited operatives of the state security outfit codenamed Amotekun. The suspect fled while the neighbours rushed the victim to the Police Clinic for treatment where she was rejected and referred to the University of Medical Sciences, Teaching Hospital, Akure.
According to Ogundadegbe, no one yet had identified the boyfriend of the victim, however his neighbours said he is a footballer.
