Two siblings have been arrested in Edo
State for allegedly killing their mother.
It was learnt that Omolayo Ojeifo, 25, and
her younger brother, Taiye, 20, in Lampese,
Akoko-Edo
Local Government, allegedly
lured their mother, Itowo Ojeifo, to a farm
road, where they allegedly killed her with a
machete.
The elder sibling, according to reports, had
been having issues with her mother, who
she accused of being behind her financial
stagnation.
She was said to have however apologised
to her mother few days to her murder,
saying she was misled into believing that
her mother was responsible for her
misfortune.
On the reported day the mother was killed,
the suspect was said to have appealed to
her to accompany her somewhere.
The victim reportedly relented after much
persuasion, abandoning the cassava she
was said to have been peeling, to
accompany her daughter.
Itowo was said to have been led through a
bush path and midway, the younger
sibling brought out a machete, with which
she was hacked to death.
An eyewitness was said to have rushed
down to the community to report what he
saw.
Confirming the incident on Sunday, Edo
State Police Public Relations Officer, Moses
Eguavoen, said the incident happened on
July 3.
The PPRO said it was the former husband
of the victim, Sunday Itowo, that made a
formal report to the police on the incident.
Eguavoen said the suspects ran to Uzebba
in Owan West LGA, but that covert police
intelligence work led to their arrest.
He said the case will soon be transferred to
the state command for further
investigation.
