Allegedly Son Stuck Scissors In Dad’s Throat, Dead

The Lagos State Criminal Investigation Department, SCID, is currently investigating the murder of one Moses Sunday, who was allegedly killed by his 21-year-old son in his three-bedroom apartment at Flat 6, 286 Jakande Estate, Mile 2 on November 6.
The deceased was based in Nasarawa State, where he worked as a mechanical engineer in a company before relocating to Lagos to live with his family about three months.

According to reports, the victim, his wife Funmilayo Tifase, their 26-year-old graduate daughter and their only son, Oluropo, retired to bed that night before the unfortunate incident happened.

When his wife woke at 6a.m, she went to her husband’s bedroom and found him dead with a scissors stuck in his throat and raised alarm. It was gathered that the neighbours alerted the Festac Divisional Police who arrested the deceased wife, daughter and son before the case was transferred to State Criminal Investigation Department, SCID, Yaba for detailed investigation.  

Although Oluropo denied murdering his father, investigations are said to be pointing towards him, as it was discovered that their apartment was not burgled. 

Oluropo was a university student before he was rusticated for cult-related activities while in 400 level. His parents later enrolled him into NIIT, ICT programme, to get him occupied instead of wasting away at home.
