Two teenagers have been arrested by the Nigeria Police Force, Ogun State Command, Ajuwon division in Ajuwon, Ifo area of Ogun State for butchering a man to death.
The victim, simply identified as AK, was killed on Thursday in front of his family – his wife and kids – at Ajuwon by the two attackers – one aged 16 and the other 17.
A witness and resident in the area told SaharaReporters that the victim was planning to travel abroad alongside his family members before the incident.
SaharaReporters learnt that the victim and the suspects had allegedly fought on Tuesday – a brawl which they later settled at the police station.
"The guys threatened the man yesterday that the fight had not finished and that they were still coming back for him.”
"Hence, three teenagers allegedly stormed the house overnight; it was around 3am this morning we heard the wife’s voice shouting for help. The guys also stole from the neighbouring houses some laptops and phones. But they have been caught this morning and taken to Ajuwon Police Station," the source added.
When contacted, the police spokesperson, Abimbola Oyeyemi, said he would get back with details but he has yet to do so as of press time.
