Mr Fayemi said the accused, who was with two others at the time, had “a mallet” hammer in his hand. The witness said Mr Giwa told him not to worry, deciding they would go to the accused’s house the next day. Mr Fayemi said he saw the accused take a pocket knife or a flick-out knife out of the back pocket of his shorts. Mr Fayemi said Mr Giwa was bleeding very badly from his neck and had collapsed. The barrister said it was the State’s case that in the course of an argument Mr Titiloye produced a knife and stabbed Mr Giwa in the neck.
