Narrating the incident that led to the murder, Hafsat Sirajo stated: "I killed him because he prevented me from killing myself. While he attempted to snatch the knife from my hand, a quarrel ensued between us and in the process I had a cut in my hand and blood was gushing out. He asked me to go in and change. It was when I went in to change and was coming out, I saw him lying down saying he was not feeling fine and was on medication. I saw the knife by his side and I seized the opportunity to pick up the knife and stabbed him severally.”
