The command said following the complaint, the DPO of the Division, Lukman Raheem, led detectives to the scene at 16, Ololade Street, Lafenwa, Itele Ota, where the suspect was arrested.

The statement said: “Preliminary investigation revealed that the suspect, who has just finished his NYSC programme, came back home three days earlier and had been having issues with the deceased since then.
