“On interrogation, the suspect claimed that the deceased asked her to pay for the electricity bill, but she insisted that until water is directly connected to her apartment as promised by the landlord before she packed in, she will not pay the electricity or any other utility bill,” Oyeyemi said.
“This led to a scuffle between them, consequence upon which the suspect grabbed the manhood of the deceased and dragged him with it.
“The landlord fell unconsciously on the ground, and he was rushed to General Hospital, Ota, where the doctor on duty confirmed him dead.”
