SHOCKING! Lagos Yahoo Boy Arrested After Attempting To Kill His Mother For Ritual (Photos)
The Lagos State Police have arrested a 29-year old man, Taiwo Akinola
for brutally attacking his mother, Mrs. Alice Iyabo Akinola, with a
plank and pressing iron for money ritual at their Ayobo residence in
Lagos.
The sleepy town of Ayobo, was yesterday, Sunday August 19 greeted with
the gory sight of a helpless mother whose face and skull were badly
battered by her son in his morbid attempt to upgrade his cyber fraud
business (yahoo.com) to the ritual level (yahoo plus).
The Police Spokesman, CSP Chike Oti, on Monday disclosed that the
incident took place at 08:30pm at 2 Raji Ajanaku street, Alaja Road,
Ayobo, Lagos, inside the flat, where the suspect lived with his mother,
Mrs. Alice Iyabo Akinola, and her grandchild, Faruk,14.
In a carefully thought out plan to kill his mother, Taiwo was said to
have gone to his mother’s provision store in front of their apartment
and told her to meet him inside the house for an important discussion
while he sent his nephew, Faruk, to buy a white handkerchief and a stick
of cigarette.
Taiwo, who is said to be a staunch member of Aiye confraternity,
attacked his mother as soon as she entered the house, smashing her head
with a plank, pressing iron and a UPS charger to ensure she didn’t
survive the ferocious attack.
Oti added: “When Faruk returned from the errand, he didn’t see his
grandmother in the shop. So, he went into the house only to see the poor
woman lying in a pool of blood. The little boy raised the alarm which
attracted neighbours to the scene.”
According to Oti, the neighbours called the Divisional Police Officer in
charge of Ayobo Division who arrived the scene with his team and
promptly arrested the suspect.
“The DPO has secured the scene for further investigation by the police
forensic experts attached to the Homicide section SCIID, Panti, Yaba”.
Mrs. Alice, who was rushed to an undisclosed hospital for treatment, is
hanging on to life, said the PPRO, adding that the doctors are battling
to revive her but she is still unconscious.
During interrogation, the suspect was said to have disclosed that he was
asked to kill his mother in order to have more money. Oti added that
when Taiwo’s room was searched, some exhibits were recovered in it.
Exhibits included: Two calabashes with one containing human skull and
the other, a mixture of dark concoction; plank perforated with nails and
stained with blood; a pressing iron stained with blood; white
handkerchief with which he wanted to scoop the victim’s blood and bottle
containing oil and ‘labeled Back to Sender’.
