Homicide detectives from the State Criminal Investigations
Department (SCID), Yaba, Lagos State have arrested a young man for the
murder of his father at Mile 2, Estate area of the state.
Residents in the area where the murder of Moses Tifase took
place alleged that he was murdered by his son, Oluropo Tifase, an
undergraduate of the University of Lagos, who had been expelled. The
deceased was murdered on Saturday morning.
Oluropo stabbed his father to death with a scissor during an argument.
Police spokesman, Kenneth Nwosu, revealed those in police
custody are; Comfort Tifase (wife), Oluropo Tifase (son) and Olufunmbi
Tifase, all living at Mile2, Estate.
Nwosu said that the suspect had been having a running
battle with his late father, over his unruly behaviour which his father
was not happy about.
Nwosu said: “The suspects and his late father had a sour
relationship, due to his unruly behaviour. The father and the son have
not been in good relationship, but on the fateful day of the incident,
the suspect and his father engaged each other in a serious argument. The
suspect angrily picked up a scissors and stabbed his father on the
neck.”
Nwosu added that when policemen from Festac Police Station
visited the scene of the incident, the corpse of the man was found lying
in a pool of his blood. The scissor, which was covered with blood, was
also recovered.
He said three suspects had all been transferred to SCID, Panti, Yaba for further investigation.
