A teenager, Haliya Odunaya, would be
off school for a while, pending when the
deep cut inflicted on her neck by
another young girl, Funmilola who
accused her of messing around with her
boyfriend, would heal. Haliya, an SS2
student, is lying critically ill at Stars
Clinic on Apapa Road, Ebute Metta
West, Lagos where doctors are battling
hard to save her life.
It was learnt that one Funmilola, a
couple of weeks before the incident,
had approached Haliya when she
started noticing she was being close with
her lover. Funmilola had reportedly
warned Haliya to stay off her man,
reportedly threatening to go any length
with anyone she found around the man.
It was even gathered that a day before
she attacked Haliya, Funmilola
reportedly stri*ped another lady stark
unclad in the same locality for the same
reason.
Thus, on that fateful Saturday,
Funmilola was allegedly informed by
another friend that Haliya was in
company with her (Funmilola’s)
boyfriend. It was reported that before
Funmilayo got to where Haliya and the
man were supposedly standing, both
had left and she headed straight for
Haliya’s house.
As Haliya appeared from the corner of
the street, Funmilola reportedly
accosted her and began to rain abuses
on the young lady. Speaking on her
hospital bed, Haliya, who denied having
an affair with the man in question
continued the story. “I was coming from where I
went to buy something that
night when Funmilola met me
at the end of the street. She
started pushing me and
insulting me but I did not
utter a word. When I entered
our house, she stood outside
and was shouting at the top of
her voice heaping insults on
my parents and I.
At that stage I decided to
respond to her threats and
went to meet her to warn her
against insulting my mother.
After I had told her my mind,
I turned to go back into our
building and that was when
she (Funmilola) dragged me
back and produced a sharp
object from under her cloths
and attacked me with it,”
Haliya alleged.
Funmilola reportedly did not let go of
Haliya until the latter slumped having
lost a lot of blood. Dr. Adeolu Olusodo,
is currently battling to save the young
girl’s life in his clinic. Speaking about
the severity of the cuts on Haliya, Dr
Adeolu expressed shock over the attack
and injury inflicted on Haliya.
According to him, Haliya could have
died in the process if the cuts had been
more. His words:
“It is strange that a young
girl would inflict such injuries
on another fellow girl. Haliya
was lucky to be alive and it
was because she had a good
escape because if the cuts had
gone down a little, it would
have resulted in loss of so
much blood and could have
touched some sensitive parts
of her body, which could have
led to loss of her life.”
Funmilola, it was gathered, has fled the
community while the man at the centre
of the storm would not answer his
telephone calls when contacted. He only
told some confidants that he had
nothing to do with the two young
ladies.
No one in Funmilola’s family was ready
to speak with the press or comment on
the whereabouts of their daughter.
Haliya’s parents also would not want to
speak to the press but it was gathered
that the community was on their neck
to allow sleeping dog lie on the matter
since their daughter survived the
gruesome attack.
A family member of Haliya who would
want to be quoted said on telephone
that the matter would not be allowed to
lie low since Funmilola had engaged in a
similar act before now.
“How on earth would you sweep
this kind of crime under the
carpet? The girl could come
round next time and do it to
anyone else. She must be
stopped. Who takes care of the
hospital bills not minding some
drugs that she would need to
regain the lost strength and
blood?”
