Man, 63, kills colleague in Abuja

A 63-year-old Abuja panel beater, Taiwo Ojo, has been arrested by operatives of the Federal Capital Territory Police Command for killing, burning, and burying the corpse of his colleague, Philip Kura, in a shallow grave in the Bwari area of the Federal Capital Territory.

Our correspondent gathered that Ojo committed culpable homicide against his colleague after an argument over money on December 23, an intelligence source privy to the homicide revealed.

The source said, “Ojo and Kura had a disagreement at his workshop on December 23. Ojo hit the victim with a shovel and he fell and died. He drew his corpse into banana trees shed close by where he later burnt and buried the victim’s remains in a shallow grave.
