According to someone who knows them well, the lady pictured did this to her boyfriend over an allegation that he impregnated someone. He shared photos of the both of them when things were going good and the man in the hospital after the attack, and wrote,
"Beware of whom you choose to be with. This is what a jealous girlfriend did to her boyfriend. Simply because she heard a rumour that he impregnated someone. Without finding out from the guy, She came to visit him on that evil day to pretend to pass the night. At midnight when he was asleep. She woke up, bleached red oil and poured it on the guy's face and body. Then she ran away. She is nowhere to found. What a wicked heart. This is not tell me I tel you. I know them and I have seen them together having fun, playing, smiling and even eating together."
