The victim, Osagie Ikede is in stable condition and being cared for at the hospital by two of his lovers, who takes shift, one cleaning him up, the other takes care of the feeding.

Speaking to The Advocate, from her hide-out, Nunu said:

"All what Obage said was not true, though we have been dating for 3 months as claimed, Obagie has been treating me badly and I have been enduring so many abuses from him,"

Nunu, who was looking un-kept and visibly distressed, said she that though they have been having problems they have a way of settling it.

"We love each other and it was never intentional that this happened, he slapped me and I was angry. The razor blade was not meant to harm him, I had actually bought the razor blade to cut my nail, but when he came shouting angrily that I had reported him to his mother, which led to him slapping me, I attacked him out of provocation.

"I am sorry for what has happened; it is the devil’s handwork. I want Obagie and his family to forgive me. I still love him and I am sure he love me too² Nunu pleaded.

She explained that she was ready to bear the cost of his medical treatment, “but nobody has reached me, I even bought provision for him please beg Obagie for me.”
