Jealous Brother Hacks\u00a0Sibling\u00a0To Death<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

A 30-year-old man is alleged to have stabbed his brother, a Merchant Navy\u00a0 to death while he was asleep…<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The incident, occurred at the early hours of Wednesday morning\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 at Oritse Street in Imude community, under Oto-Awori local development council area of Lagos.<\/p>\n

After allegedly committing the devilish deed, the suspect, Allen Biodun, 30,\u00a0 reportedly dragged the remains of his brother, Allen Olawale Ayetimi,24,toan uncompleted building behind their compound and dumped it inside\u00a0 the foundation of the building,covered it with leaves.Thereafter he quietly went to his room and\u00a0 took his late brother\u2019s ATM card, his Merchant navy uniform and phone.<\/p>\n

Crime Guard<\/i><\/b>\u00a0gathered that the deceased only returned from an official trip to\u00a0 Port Harcourt at about 11pm Tuesday. Although, the late Olawale was based in Port Harcourt, Rivers State. But his mission to his family\u2019s house as reliably gathered, was to settle a score between his elder brother and\u00a0 mother.<\/p>\n

Neighbours\u00a0 who referred to Biodun as a terror in the area, alleged that he was\u00a0 also responsible for the death of his father\u00a0 two years ago. He was alleged to have poisoned his father\u2019s food in order to take over\u00a0 his three-bedroom bungalow as inheritance.<\/p>\n

After his father\u2019s death, Biodun reportedly chased his mother and siblings out of the main building,giving\u00a0 them the two shops in front o f the house.<\/p>\n

None, could\u00a0 however tell whether there was any scuffle between Olawale\u00a0 and his\u00a0 elder brother on his arrival. But\u00a0Crime Guard<\/i><\/b>\u00a0 gathered that there had been a lingering dispute between the duo. Sources attributed the dispute to petty jealousy which could be likened to that of\u00a0 the biblical\u00a0 Cain and Abel story.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0 death of their father as gathered, saddled Olawale with the responsibility of catering for members of his family, since he was the only one who was working\u00a0 among them. Unknown to him, his good will did not go down well with his elder brother, who on the other hand, reportedly\u00a0 resorted to buglary and bullying as a means of survival.<\/p>\n

At other times, Biodun reportedly did\u00a0 menial jobs. But the fear of Biodun in the environment was the beginning of wisdom.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter the death of his father,\u00a0 he took to burglary. Everybody is afraid of him in the street. The only thing people did was to close their doors or even enter their rooms whenever they see him coming. Even if you see him stealing your property, you have no option than to beg him to return them\u00a0 because if you shout at him, he will beat you and nobody will come to your rescue\u201d, a resident said, when\u00a0Crime Guard\u00a0<\/i><\/b>visited.<\/p>\n

Another possible reason attributed to the seeming \u2018cold war\u2019 between the duo as gathered,\u00a0 followed Olawale\u2019s refusal to sometimes meet with Biodun\u2019s financial demand, an action the latter\u00a0 took as intimidation and disrespect on his person.<\/p>\n

Journey to death<\/b><\/p>\n

On\u00a0<\/b>arrival from Port Harcourt that fateful day, Olawale reportedly washed his uniform, took his bath\u00a0 and shared a brief moment with his mother and siblings in the shop they were confined to,during which he informed them that his mission home was to convince his brother to accept them back\u00a0 into the main building,unaware that he would never live to see his mission accomplished. Before retiring to his bedroom which he shared with his elder brother, Olawale\u00a0 was said to have instructed one of his sisters to boil water for him to bath the next morning.<\/p>\n

But apprehension set in at about 7am Wednesday, after his sister went to inform him that the hot water was ready, only to discover his blood stained clothes on the floor,without any sight of him. As she was about to leave the room, she reportedly met Biodun, who informed her that Olawale had gone to the bank. Unsure of what to do, his sister, reportedly\u00a0 alerted her mother who raised an alarm that created a scene in front of the building.<\/p>\n

At that moment, a\u00a0 neighbour identified as Mr\u00a0 Sunday Abogunrin, disclosed to the gathering that\u00a0 he saw\u00a0 Biodun hours back,\u00a0 dragging something\u00a0 on the ground. Their greatest fear was confirmed when Biodun bolted\u00a0 at the verge of being questioned about the whereabouts of his younger brother. Noone,could at first run after him, apparently unsure of what he could be up to. It only took the efforts of a man among the crowd to catch him. After much persuation, Biodun reportedly took the crowd to where he laid the remains of his younger brother. On closer look, a deep cut,\u00a0 was discovered in the late Olawale\u2019s neck and forehead.<\/p>\n

How I killed my brother<\/b><\/p>\n

A mild drama reportedly unfolded as Biodun, according to eye witnesses,\u00a0 started behaving like someone that was mentally ill,following\u00a0\u00a0 his\u00a0 incoherent statement. But at a point, he reportedly confessed to have stabbed Olawale while he was sleeping.<\/p>\n

The neighbour who claimed to have seen Biodun dragging the body of Olawale, told\u00a0Crime Guard<\/i><\/b>\u00a0that:\u00a0 \u201cI came out\u00a0 at about 1 am to ease myself at the backyard, when I noticed some movements. Out of curiosity, I peeped to see who it was, only to find Biodun dragging something on the floor. When I finished from the toilet, he was returning from where he went.\u00a0 I noticed his hands were stained with blood\u00a0 and when I asked where the blood came from, he said he just killed a goat. I never suspected anything, so, I went inside to sleep. It was when I heard shout from their compound in the morning that I had to\u00a0 disclose what happened\u201d.<\/p>\n

The residents who wondered why a man could go as far as taking his own brother\u2019s life, were however not too surprised, as some of them claimed they saw it coming.<\/p>\n

According to one Ochukwo:\u201cIt is unfortunate that Olawale died. Biodun has actually made do his threat because he had on several occasions boasted that he would be the one to\u00a0 kill Olalwale someday. He had stabbed him before during a fight and since then, had told several persons that he would kill him someday\u201d.<\/p>\n

On why nobody cared to inform the police about Biodun\u2019s threat , the residents said they\u00a0 would not want\u00a0 a situation whereby he would come after them at the end of the day.<\/p>\n

Crime Guard<\/i><\/b>\u00a0gathered that Biodun\u2019s mother and siblings were currently not only devastated by the tragic incident but were also afraid Biodun could carry out a more dastardly act if let off the hook.<\/p>\n

He was however, handed over to the traditional ruler of the\u00a0 community, who thereafter, invited the Police.<\/p>\n
