A 28-year-old s3x worker, Elochukwu Solomon, has been allegedly stabbed to death by a bus conductor in Lagos State.

Testifying before Justice Adesanya, of the Lagos State High Court sitting in Tafawa Balewa Square on Thursday, June 1, 2023, Inspector Oso, said the 23-year-old defendant deliberately stabbed the deceased with a knife.

The witness, who was led in evidence-in-chief by the state prosecuting counsel, Olayemi Shofolu, said the defendant made a statement saying that he had an agreement to pay the late Solomon N2,000, but that it was after he had s3x with her that the deceased said she was no longer collecting N2,000 but N8,000.
