A 27-year-old lady identified as Oluchi Nzemechi, from Ikeduru Local Government Area of Imo State, is now cooling off in the police net for allegedly stabbing her boyfriend, Kelechi Nzemechi, to death due to a disagreement over the sharing formula of proceeds from their internet fraud popularly called Yahoo Yahoo.
According to a statement by the Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Henry Okoye, the suspect admitted committing the crime.
It was gathered that the suspect revealed how her boyfriend lured her into cybercrime.

I am coming for your wife and your child, including your family,” and placed it on the lifeless body of the victim before running away from the house.
