Mother-of-four care worker named as victim killed in Manchester triple stabbing

A woman killed during a triple stabbing in Manchester has been named as Alberta Obinim.

The 43-year-old mother-of-four died following the knife attack in Gorton on Sunday night, after which a 17-year-old girl and a 64-year-old man were in a critical condition in hospital.

Police have arrested a 22-year-old on suspicion of murder. Detectives said the suspect was known to the victims.

Ibrahim Abu, a family friend, led the tributes to Ms Obinim, a care worker and church-going member of the city’s Ghanaian community. He told the Manchester Evening News (MEN) she attended the Blessed Baptist Temple in Levenshulme.

“She was a very nice lady,” Mr Abu said. “I knew her very well. We all go to church together.”

Why so many females attacked in uk
Victim named but not the lunatic?

[killpop]

Would all these knife victims still be alive if Starmer had the Police working on knife crime, rather than being mean on the internet and jailing people for it?
PS. The AntiStarmer Petition is near quarter of a million.

Past and present governments should be held accountable. They're putting all of us in danger.

[robertalford]

I wonder if Starmer will turn up here for a photo-op.

Condolences to her family and friends. Hope the young girl and gentleman get better soon.

What is wrong with these men that they arm themselves with knives to attack unarmed victims?

Care worker? It happens to the best of people.

[deqafarah]

Very sad, people don't feel safe anymore 😢.

Poor woman what a waste of a life a hard working woman and just by the picture such a peaceful soul working in a industry helping others, i cant find the words to describe Starmer because they would never do him justice

[joneseskid]

She was in church praising God on Sunday. Alberta is the presence of God and nobody will ever hurt her again. Rest in Jesus dear lady.
Praying for the family and for the community. She sounded like a lovely lady, who was always helping others.
What a terrible situation this country is in because of knife crimes.

There was an incident in East Kilbride in Scotland on July 31st when a group of men with machetes chopped the hand off another man and stabbed a second. Not a murmur from Police Scotland or the MSM about it. No calls for witnesses etc.... it's as if it didn't happen...I wonder why? It seems Starmer has unleashed all sorts of madness onto our streets by his utter contempt of the British people. Condolences to Alberta Obinim's friends and family..

Let's see if the police have learned anything...
