An interior designer, identified as Deborah Moses, popularly known as Deb’rah Porsche, has been allegedly murdered in Lagos by her ex-boyfriend, months after she ended their relationship.

The incident, which occurred late Wednesday night, has sparked outrage among family members, neighbors, and rights activists, who are demanding justice for the slain young woman.

According to reports, the suspect, identified simply as Lintex, a native of Otukpo in Benue State, allegedly disguised as a dispatch rider to gain access to the estate where Deborah lived.

When security operatives became suspicious, he reportedly scaled the fence into the compound and proceeded to her apartment.

It was learned that the suspect first attempted to cause an explosion by cutting the cooking gas pipe outside the house. When that plan failed, he allegedly broke into Deborah’s residence and stabbed her multiple times until she died. A relative of the victim said Deborah ended the relationship over a year ago but had been repeatedly threatened by the suspect.

“They have broken up for more than a year now, but this guy refused to move on. He keeps making statements like, ‘If I don’t have you, nobody will. If I don’t marry you, blood will flow,’” the relative said. She added that Deborah, who had just completed her National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) programme and was gradually building her career, had been avoiding strange calls and unwanted advances from the suspect before the tragedy.

“She was only trying to find her feet when this tragedy struck,” the grieving sister said.

Neighbors restrained the suspect after the attack before handing him over to the police. He is currently in custody, while activists and family members have called for a thorough investigation, warning that the case must not be swept under the carpet.

The Nigeria Police Force has arrested a chef, John Cosmos Govi, over his alleged involvement in a burglary operation at a residence in Abuja, where luxury items and valuables worth about N150 million were reportedly stolen.

The arrest was announced on Monday, May 25, 2026, by the Force Public Relations Officer, DCP Anthony Placid, who said the suspect was apprehended by operatives of the Force Intelligence Department Intelligence Response Team (FID-IRT) after investigations into allegations of criminal conspiracy, housebreaking, theft, malicious damage and administering harmful substances.

According to police findings, Govi, who allegedly gained employment as a chef at the residence, was said to have studied the movement of occupants, internal routine and security setup before allegedly carrying out the operation on April 23, 2026.

Investigators said he reportedly worked with two accomplices identified as Peter and Moses, who are currently on the run.

Police alleged that food prepared in the house was laced with a suspected sedative substance to weaken the occupants and security personnel.

After they reportedly became unconscious, the suspects allegedly broke into the property, damaged CCTV installations and stole 20 luxury wristwatches valued at about N150 million, alongside other valuables.

Speaking on the development, DCP Anthony Placid said the suspect was intercepted around the Gwagwalada axis of the Federal Capital Territory while attempting to flee to Lagos. He added that an iPhone 17 Pro Max, believed to belong to the victim, and a suspected chemical substance were recovered.

“We remain committed to dismantling organised criminal networks and ensuring that all fleeing accomplices are brought to justice,” Placid said.
