Retired school vice principal allegedly beats female neighbour to d3ath over nylon bag in Ondo

The Ondo State Police Command has arrested a retired school vice principal, Alhaji Abdullahi Kasim Ayodele, for allegedly beating his 54-year old neighbour, Mrs. Caroline Agoi, to d3ath. This followed a dispute over a nylon bag that reportedly blew into his compound in Owo, Owo Local Government Area of Ondo State. It was gathered that the incident occurred along UseluIsuada Road in Owo, near a transformer within the community. Reports indicated that the suspect had earlier engaged the deceased in a heated argument across their fence after accusing her of being responsible for a nylon bag that was blown by the wind into his compound. The disagreement reportedly escalated when Abdullahi and his son left their compound in anger and went to the womans residence. Eyewitnesses said that the suspect picked up a bench in front of the womans house and, with the assistance of his son, allegedly attacked her with it.  The woman reportedly collapsed during the assault, with foam coming out of her mouth, and was later confirmed dead. A source said the deceased was on the phone with her husband during the altercation when the suspect allegedly stormed her house and struck her with the bench. I learnt that the quarrel started because Alhaji accused the woman of throwing the nylon into his compound. The wind had blown it there, but he insisted it belonged to her. She was calling her husband on the phone when he angrily entered the compound and hit her with a bench, the source told Ondo State Govt owned publication, Hope Newspaper. It was further gathered that the deceaseds husband, who works as a driver to the Olori of the Olowo of Owo, fainted in shock upon returning home and learning about the tragic incident. He was later rushed to the Federal Medical Centre FMC, Owo, for medical attention. The body of the deceased has since been deposited in a mortuary, while residents of the area have expressed shock and outrage over the incident. The Ondo State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Jimoh Abayomi, who confirmed the incident said the suspect is currently in police custody and that investigations are ongoing. The post Retired school vice principal allegedly beats female neighbour to d3ath over nylon bag in Ondo appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
