A 62-year-old woman, Ms. Yemi Olasehinde, has been allegedly stabbed to death by her younger sister, Iyanu Olasehinde, in Ondo State.
The incident occurred at the victim’s home in Okedasa, Ondo town.
It was learnt that the victim and her sister, a local government official, had an argument over the inheritance of their late father, and Iyanu allegedly picked up a kitchen knife and stabbed Yemi.
The victim’s cries attracted the neighbours, who took her to a private hospital, where she was confirmed dead.
When newsmen visited the house where the incident occurred, there were blood stains everywhere.
Relations gathered outside the house, discussing in hushed tones.
The Divisional Police Officer of Enuowa, Ebenezer Adegalu, was not available for comments.
A senior police officer, who did not want to be named, said the deceased’s body was deposited at the State Specialist Hospital morgue in Ondo town.
The officer said Iyanu and five others were arrested and are at the command’s headquarters in Akure.
Police spokesman Wole Ogodo said he was yet to get a report of the incident. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
