The Ogun Police Command said it had arrested one Dr.
Emmanuel Ogah, who allegedly stabbed his biological mother to death.
In a statement issued in Abeokuta Saturday by its Public
Relations Officer, DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi, the command said the arrest was sequel
to a complaint by the elder brother of the suspect, Cletus Ogah.
It said the elder brother reported at Itele Ota
Divisional headquarters that his younger brother had stabbed his 62 year-old
mother, one Janet Ogah, to death.
The command said that following the complaint, the DPO of
the division, CSP Lukman Raheem, led detectives to the scene at No 16, Ololade
street, Lafenwa, Itele Ota , where the suspect was arrested.
“Preliminary investigation revealed that the suspect, who
has just finished his NYSC programme, came back home three days earlier and had
been having issues with the deceased since then.
“In his statement, the suspect claimed that his mother
was in the habit of insulting and disgracing him in the presence of her
apprentices, and that frustrated him into taking her life,” it said.
According to the command, the corpse of the deceased, a
food vendor, has been deposited at the Ota General Hospital morgue, for
autopsy.
It said that the State Commissioner of Police, Ahmed
Iliyasu, had ordered the immediate transfer of the suspect to homicide section
of the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department, for further
investigation. (NAN)
