A lady has allegedly killed her brother over N100 banana in their home in Mushin, Lagos, Southwest Nigeria.
Sources told P.M.News that the murder occurred three days ago when the lady, identified as Miss Queen Nnenna Eneguwe, returned home and discovered that her brother had eaten some of the banana she kept in the house.
According to our sources, someone gave Queen some banana which she kept at their residence at 24, Bankole Street, Idi-Oro, Mushin, before going out.
However, she was enraged when, on returning home that fateful Tuesday, she discovered that her 18-year-old brother, Thankgod Chubuza Eneguwe had eaten some of the banana.
An argument eventually led to a fight and she was alleged to have stabbed the brother with a knife. Thankgod was said to have died on the way to the hospital.
When P.M.News visited Bankole Street, people were seen discussing the matter in groups. Some co-tenants of the deceased said the lady and her late brother were the only ones living in their apartment.
Checks at Alakara Police Station in Mushin revealed that the murder incident was initially reported there before it was transferred to SCID in Panti.
The corpse of the deceased was deposited at the public mortuary for autopsy, while Queen has been detained.
Samuel Jinadu, police public relations officer, Lagos State Command confirmed the incident to P.M.News.
Jinadu, a deputy superintendent of police, while describing the incident as unfortunate, however, advised people not to allow anger to overwhelm them no matter the circumstance.
