A Nigerian Army personnel identified as Abubakar has reportedly killed Olapade Segun, an officer of the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC).
The incident occurred, after an altercation had ensued between the two men at a nightclub in the Bodija area of Ibadan, Oyo State.
The incident occurred on Sunday after a confrontation between the two men, who had met at the same venue days earlier.
According to eyewitness accounts, the dispute escalated when Abubakar brandished a dagger and fatally stabbed Segun.
The NSCDC officer succumbed to severe blood loss before medical help could reach him.
Following the incident, an angry mob attempted to deliver justice by severely beating the soldier as he tried to flee the scene.
However, he was eventually rescued by fellow soldiers who arrived to disperse the crowd.
