Old Tweets Resurface After Nigerian Man Allegedly Kills Ex-Girlfriend in Lagos

Lagos, Nigeria – September 7, 2025 – A chilling case in Lagos has gripped Nigeria, as old tweets by Lintex Ogale, a man accused of murdering his ex-girlfriend, Deborah Moses, have resurfaced, sparking outrage and debate across social media. Deborah, a young interior designer known as Deb’rah Porsche, was allegedly killed by Ogale nearly two years after their relationship ended, with the suspect reportedly disguising himself as a dispatch rider to gain access to her apartment.

According to reports from Premium Times and Legit.ng, Ogale, from Otukpo, Benue State, allegedly attempted to sabotage the gas pipeline outside Deborah’s home in a bid to trigger an explosion. When this failed, he reportedly broke into her residence and stabbed her multiple times, leading to her death. Neighbors, alerted by Deborah’s screams, apprehended Ogale and handed him over to the police. A family friend, Meddy Olutu Imanoel, detailed the incident, noting that Deborah had ended the relationship over a year ago due to alleged domestic violence and persistent harassment.

Following Ogale’s arrest, an old tweet attributed to him went viral, in which he wrote, “Na who know person go kill am normal,” a chilling statement that many now interpret as foreshadowing the crime. The tweet, widely shared on platforms like X, has fueled public anger and discussions about the dangers of ignoring red flags in relationships. One X user, @Iamcensiny, commented, “Sometimes I take these tweets I see on that X app serious because these people actually meant what they tweet. Don’t tell me it’s an old tweet.”

The case has drawn parallels to other high-profile incidents of gender-based violence, both in Nigeria and globally. In the United States, similar cases have highlighted the persistence of domestic violence and the role of social media in exposing troubling behavior. For instance, a 2024 case in Illinois saw Emmet Metzger sentenced to life for gunning down his ex-girlfriend, Alexis Maki, after a breakup, with the victim’s mother citing his controlling behavior as a warning sign. While Ogale’s case remains under investigation, it underscores the need for greater awareness of domestic violence indicators, such as harassment or threatening online posts.

Nigerians have expressed horror and grief over Deborah’s death, with many calling for justice. The resurfaced tweet has intensified scrutiny of Ogale’s actions and raised questions about accountability for online statements. As the investigation continues, the tragedy serves as a stark reminder of the real-world consequences of unchecked aggression and the importance of addressing warning signs, whether in person or on social media.
