Father Allegedly Beats Son to Death with Shovel in Lagos, Police Investigates
The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, has officially acknowledged the tragic death of a 19-year-old young man allegedly at the hands of his own father.
According to reports received by the Alagbado Police Division on Tuesday, the incident unfolded when the father, identified as Olumide, reportedly inflicted a severe injury on his son, Adeyemi, using a shovel during a confrontation over unspecified reasons.
Initially treated at a local hospital, Adeyemi’s condition worsened, prompting his transfer to General Hospital Ikeja.
Tragically, despite medical efforts, he succumbed to complications arising from tetanus infection, as confirmed by attending medical personnel.
Upon receiving the report, detectives promptly visited the scene to gather evidence and initiate investigations into the circumstances surrounding the incident.
As of now, the case remains under active investigation as authorities seek to ascertain the full details and motives behind this heartbreaking incident.
It has been reported that the Ebola virus is rising again and there have been some cases. This has caused fear in many, with talks of different viruses spreading.
Amid this concern, the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) reassured the people that no trace of Ebola has been confirmed in the country, despite the outbreak in Africa.
FAAN shared that they have been on the lookout for travellers who may have symptoms, and so far there is none.
It has been reported that the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), has finally released the withheld results of 279 students.
It can be recalled that some results were held due to investigations of cheating. Some results proved to have traces of malpractice and were cancelled, but the ones without traces have been released and the students can finally move on.
JAMB also shared additional advice for students that might have not seen theirs: “Candidates whose results have not yet been released are advised to check their status by sending UTMERESULT to 55019 or 66019 using the same phone number used for registration to view their released results.”
It was reported that former Nigerian president Goodluck Jonathan has allegedly purchased a presidential candidate form for the 2027 elections.
It can be noted that Jonathan served as Nigeria’s president from 2010 to 2015.
This information was revealed by Sani Useni, a special assistant who made the claim. Many reacted to the news, with some expressing interest in seeing Jonathan return to power after staying relatively quiet politically since his administration ended.
However, Jonathan has not yet addressed the public or officially shared any presidential ambition.
