The Police in Kano have arrested a middle-aged man, Muntari Umar, for allegedly prodding his friend into killing his mum.
A statement signed by Kano police spokesman, DSP Magaji Majiya, on
Thursday said that Umar’s friend, Saleh Abdullahi, who allegedly killed
the 70-year-old woman, was also arrested.
Majiya said that the two suspects were arrested for allegedly
conspiring to kill the old woman. According to him, Abdullahi allegedly
killed 70-year-old Hajiya Zinab-Abu on the prodding of Umar, her
biological son.
“Based on investigation, Umar was found to have conspired with
his friend to stab his elderly mother to death after having a heated
disagreement with her,” the police said.
According to him, Umar, of Fegin Liman in Kano, was said to have
been irked by his mother’s refusal to grant him permission to lease his
farm. Majiya said the two suspects would be arranged in court for
prosecution once ongoing investigation was completed.
