"He has not paid me since I started working for him in September last year.

"On Tuesday when he brought the money to the office, I asked him to give me my wage from the money he brought because I was hungry.

“He ignored me and refused to give me the money; so, I forcefully took N200,000 from the money. But he grabbed it and slapped me.

"He also brought out a knife to stab me, but I managed to collect the knife from him. I stabbed him and ran out of the office with the N200,000.

"I acted that way because I was frustrated; I did not know that he would die," Adewale Adegoroye stated in a comment captured by Punch.
