A medical doctor, Emmanuel Ogah, was arrested last Thursday in Ogun state for allegedly stabbing his 62-year-old mother, Mrs. Janet Ogah, to death.
His heartbroken elder brother, Cletus Ogah had reported the tragic incident to police command at Itele-Ota divisional headquarters.
Acting on the tip-off, the Divisional Police Officer, Lukman Raheem, led detectives to the scene of the alleged crime at No. 16 Ololade Street Lafenwa, Itele-Ota, where the suspect was arrested.
According to the police, Punch reports, preliminary investigation revealed that the suspect, who recently completed his National Youth Service Corps programme, had been quarrelling with his
mother.
Emmanuel claimed that his mother was in the habit of insulting and disgracing him in the presence of her apprentices, hence, he took her life.
The remains of the woman, the police said, had been deposited at a mortuary in Ota General Hospital for an autopsy.
PUNCH adds that the state Commissioner of Police, Ahmed Iliyasu, ordered the immediate transfer of the suspect to the homicide section of the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department for further investigation.
