My opinion is that he should have been given at least 15 years jail term Okolo said.
Okoro Nnamdi, a businessman in his reaction said the jail term is insignificant in the light of the offence.
Honestly, I am not happy over the five years given to him to serve.
It could be that the youngman deliberately killed his girlfriend for the reasons best known to him, Nnamdi said.

Dagogo was of the view that the court would have freed him, haven shown every evidence that it was a mistake.
