Tragedy reportedly struck in Lagos on Wednesday night when a young interior designer and recent NYSC graduate, Deborah Moses, popularly known as Deb’rah Porsche, was brutally murdered in her home by her estranged boyfriend.
The suspect, identified as Lintex, a native of Otukpo in Benue State, allegedly disguised himself as a dispatch rider to gain entry into the estate where Deborah lived.
When estate security raised suspicions, he reportedly scaled the fence and forced his way into her compound.
According to witnesses, Lintex first attempted to trigger an explosion by tampering with Deborah Moses’ cooking gas pipe outside her apartment.
When that failed, he allegedly broke into her residence and stabbed her multiple times, leaving her lifeless.
Family sources said that Deborah Moses had ended the relationship over a year ago but continued to face threats from the suspect.
“He used to say, ‘If I don’t have you, nobody will. If I don’t marry you, blood will flow,’” a grieving relative disclosed.
Deborah, who had just completed her National Youth Service Corps and was slowly building her career, had reportedly been avoiding unwanted calls and advances from him before her tragic death.
