@op you have done the right thing... I won't encourage you to lose your virginity at this point. I got married at 29 and I was a virgin. It's not as bad as you thing. You can get a water based lubricant if it hurts you.

Good luck

The couple on their wedding

When 30-year-old Akolade Arowolo and Titilayo tied the knot in November 2008, there was merrymaking as families, friends and well-wishers joined them to celebrate what appeared like true love. Many unmarried young men and women, who graced the occasion, wished they were in the shoes of the couple.



After a while, it was learnt that the couple had a baby girl. Both families and well-wishers were on hand to share the joy of the arrival of the baby with Akolade and Titilayo.



However, on Friday, it was with rude shock and disbelief that the residents of Aswani area of Isolo, Lagos where the couple lived, received the news that Titilayo had been stabbed in the chest and her body mutilated by her husband.



The question on everybody’s lips was: what could have gone wrong? Curious enough, Titilayo was murdered on her husband’s 30th birthday.



When PUNCH METRO spoke with a former classmate of Akolade in the University of Lagos, he said Akolade battered his wife on several occasions because he was frustrated. Akolade’s classmate, who craved anonymity, suspected that he (Akolade) was drunk and stabbed her to death on the day of the incident.



He said, “Arowolo lost his job about two years ago. Titilayo had been sustaining the family with her salaries. I heard he beat her, but she did not tell her relatives. She however confided in one of her colleagues.



“She got home one day and saw that he had sold her car. When she confronted him, he said he needed money. It strained their marriage for a while and she left the house. But she later went back.”



It was learnt that Titilayo, an employee of Skye Bank, Marina, confided in one of her colleagues that her marriage was undergoing challenges but was reluctant to leave because she did not want her daughter to be raised in a broken home.



Some of Akolade’s colleagues at the Federal Government College, Ijankin, Lagos, in 1998, who did not want their names to be mentioned because of the sensitivity of the case, described him as an easy going person, “who does not meddle in other people’s affairs.”



One of his colleagues, who gave his name simply as Tayo, after much pressure by our correspondent, said, “Arowolo was ahead of me for a year in Ijanikin. Sometimes he would be absent from school for a whole term and you would not even notice because he never got into trouble and never kept many friends.”



PUNCH METRO gathered that although Akolade was not gainfully employed, he was running a company registered as ‘Auditing Business’ and functioned as both the auditor and the Chief Executive Officer. Despite this, it was learnt that Titilayo was solely responsible for the upkeep of the family and this frequently caused friction between the couple.



One of Titilayo’s colleagues in the office, who craved anonymity said, “ Last Friday, she (Titilayo) started her leave and informed her parents she would be coming over for the weekend because her father lives in Ifako while she lived in Isolo with her husband. She was the one that even paid the house rent. She paid about N1.3m recently.



“When her relatives didn’t hear from her again, they called her phone several times but she didn’t pick her calls. Later, her husband called back to say they had a small misunderstanding, which had been sorted out.



“They asked to speak with her, but he said she was busy and would call back later. But they didn’t hear from them again. The neighbours however saw her husband jump through the window with blood stains and drove off. But since there was no screaming from the apartment or any noise to suggest they were quarrelling, the neighbours thought all was well.”



PUNCH METRO gathered that Titilayo’s body was discovered two days later with a knife still in her neck. She was stabbed severally in the face and chest.



When contacted, the Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Samuel Jinadu, said he was not aware of the incident and asked that he should be given more time to find out.



But when he was called two hours later, he said, “You still have to give me more time because I just left a meeting now.”

The mystery surrounding the brutal murder of the Sokoto-based official of the State Security Service and four members of his immediate family a few days ago has been resolved as the eldest son of the family, Bello Garba Bello on Wednesday in Kano confessed to slaughtering dad, mum and three siblings.

The members of his family who were murdered in the early hours of Monday include the father of the home, Garba Bello Hadejia, his wife, Habiba Bello Hadejia and his three children, Khalifa (17), Hafsat (19) and Murijatu (six).
Making his confession in the office of the State Commissioner of Police, Alhaji Mohammed Gana, at the Bompai headquarters of the command, the suspect said he decided to wipe out his family members after his discovery, on that night, that his father had died.

The suspect, who described the death of his father as unbearable, added that the loss of his father automatically transferred the burden of having to cater for the survival of the entire family on him.
Insisting that he alone, and no other person, murdered the victims, he disclosed that he took the two knives from the kitchen in their 173 Federal Government Housing Estate, Gandu, Zoo Road, Kano home to carry out the heinous crime.
The suspect was all along held at the Kano office of the State Security Service (SSS) in Ginginyi area of the state, but has been transferred to the Bompai headquarters of the police command where he spoke to the media. He looked downcast and was reluctant to speak and had to be led on by police detectives.

According to him, he could not remember whether his clothes were stained with blood, adding that all that he could remember was that he left the family compound after he committed the act. In the confession statement made by the suspect to the police on the matter, dated September 15, and sourced by the Daily Sun, Bello, 21, wrote that, “On the night of September 13, I was home with all the family members. (they) were asleep. I was woken up by my mother, Habiba Danjani. It was my turn to massage my father.”

He recalled that his mother had told him that that the father’s condition had worsened adding that both of them were initially putting their heads together, planning on how to take him to the hospital. Bello added that when they raised the dad up for them to take him to the hospital, he fell down, noting that at that point, his mother started crying that their father was dead.
According to him, it was at that point he rushed to the kitchen to get two knives which he used for the attack, starting with his brother, Khalifa, and then his sister, who was stabbed next.

He went on: “Then my mother, she ran to the room and phoned somebody (that) I attacked my father. … then my two sisters heard the scream and came out (and) I attacked them too. But I struggled with Hafsat. When I was about to stab myself, I heard Farouk crying in the toilet, …whatever took over my mind subsided at the time. I ran to the stairs calling for help.” After the act was done and his relatives killed, he then moved to Farouk and ordered him to tell no one what had transpired or that he was responsible for the killings.

In the statement, the suspect said he killed his parents due to fact that he was conscious of the economic hardship that was before him upon the death of their father and could not imagine a way out for the family. He pointed out that being a school dropout, there was no way he would be able to carry the burden of his family, hence he decided to kill all of them.

The first helper he called, according to him, was their former houseboy named Isaya, who he said pleaded that he couldn’t come out because his doors were jammed. Subsequently, he crossed over to the other gate where he called a neighbour named Garzali, adding that he told them there were people inside their compound who tried to kill all of them.
He said the neighbour and his family held him in their compound until past five in the morning when the bodies were discovered.

However, spokesmen of the bereaved family, Alhaji Umar Danjani Hadejia, disagreed with the findings of the police, especially as it claimed that it was the suspect alone that killed the members of his family. Hadejia insisted there was no way one person could kill all the five of them without an outside help. He said based on their findings, especially accounts from the only witness, Farouk Baba, the young boy recalled sighting somebody who was called Aminu, and who wore a white singlet and a short inside their house while the killings lasted.

He added that the neighbours also confirmed that they heard whistling outside the compound. The family therefore insisted that the police and SSS should carry out further investigation into the murder. The suspect’s own statement showed that he was born in Kano State on July 29, 1989 and went to Al- Ritra Nursery and Primary School. He was later transferred to Yan Dutse Nursery and Primary School. He also attended Spring Secondary School for the JSS.
