The Lagos State Police Command yesterday paraded a barber, Ibrahim Oluyinde, for allegedly stabbing his mother to death in the Abule-Egba area of the state.
It was gathered that Oluyinde, who hails from Abeokuta, Ogun State, allegedly killed his mother last Friday, claiming that she was responsible for his father’s death which occurred sometime last year.

The police, however, arrested the suspect on Saturday.
SP Dolapo Badmos, the Police Public Relations Officer, confirmed the incident.
She said, “The police have arrested the suspect for allegedly killing his mother on Friday. He is to be transferred to the State Department of Criminal Investigation.”
