The deceased was rushed to the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital for treatment but was later confirmed dead by doctor as a result of the severe burns she suffered.

The defendant, during the investigation, reportedly confessed to the crime saying she had a minor misunderstanding with the deceased.

She also said that the misunderstanding prompted them to be keeping malice hence she decided to pour petrol on her and burn her.
