Tiwa Bankole, the singer who was allegedly stabbed by her landlord’s son, Tobi Obadina, has said she thought she was going to die. According to her,“When he was stabbing me, I started bleeding profusely and I thought I was going to die,” she said.

Bankole, who spoke with our correspondent on her hospital bed at Iyana-Ipaja, said she did nothing to warrant the attack, adding Tobi believes no one could arrest him because his father is a retired police officer and his stepmother, a policewoman, he always gets away with his misdeeds, she said.

She said she had reported the 23-year-old boy to his father on many occasions but the landlord always ignored her.However the incident that led to the attack started when she wanted to use the toilet but Tobi blocked her way, threatening to beat her up.

After a brief argument, neighbours advised her to ignore him which she did and reported the incident to her father who also reported to the landlord. The singer said on the day she was brutally stabbed by Tobi, she was going to fetch water in the compound when he accosted her and started cursing her.

She ignored him and this further infuriated him.

Which prompted Tobi followed her into her room where he stabbed her and her younger brother, Olaniyi, repeatedly. Masquerade234 gathered that a neighbour, Sola Ajayi, who intervened, was also stabbed in the process.

Tobi’s father, Ebenezer Obadina, however, dissociated himself from the incident. adding that he had warned his son to turn a new leaf and had done his best as a father. According to him, he was sleeping when the incident occurred and did not even know that Tobi was on the premises.

Tobi, is still being detained at Gowon Police Division. While Bankole and her brother are recuperating in hospital.
