A man killed his father over N70,000

A 38-year-old man has been arrested for attacking his father with a machete leading to his death around Olorunda area, Ijoko in the Ado-Odo Local Government Area of the state, Nigeria.

“The suspect butchered his father to death over his inability to produce the N70,000 kept with him since July 2022,” reports said.

The Divisional Command patrol team was thereafter instructed to rescue the hepless victim and get the son arrested.

The victim had been rushed to hospital due to the injury sustained but was later confirmed dead by the doctor on duty at the hospital.

The suspect confessed that he was forced to commit the act having resigned from his previous job to embark on a business but his father could not provide him the money.

“The suspect has been transferred to the Sango Divisional Headquarters of the state police command for further investigation and prosecution,” reports said.
