A suspect identified as Ibrahim Salisu has been arrested by the Ogun State Police Command for allegedly macheting his brother, Malaimi Yellow, to death over alleged sexual demand.
The state command of the Nigerian Police said the incident happened in the Araromi Street, Sango-Ota area at about 11:00 p.m. on Friday.
It was alleged that the 54-year-old had been allegedly pestering his little brother for sex.
The police alleged that following Yellow’s ceaseless demands, the younger brother was said to have drawn out a machete to end his life.
The spokesperson for the command, Odutola Omolola, told PUNCH Metro in an exclusive interview on Sunday that the corpse of Yellow had been recovered and deposited at the Ifo General Hospital Mortuary for autopsy.
“He has confessed to the crime. He told our men, who arrested him, that he killed his brother because he kept disturbing him for sex. His case will soon be transferred once the preliminary investigation is completed,” Odutola said.
