But trouble started on Tuesday, December 20, 2016, after he requested for his salary and the 33-year-old Adeleke told him she did not have cash in the house and should be patient till the following day when she would get the money for him.

But the explanation did not sit well with Smith who grabbed a kitchen knife and stabbed Adeleke several times, leading to her death.

After killing Adeleke who was said to be putting finishing touches to her wedding early next year, Smith made a dance video which he later posted on his Instagram page with the handle, William_smith1059, where he showed his dancing skills.

According to family sources, the deceased helped Smith who was a refugee and living in a church by employing him and giving him an accommodation.
