Ondo State Police Command has confirmed the arrest of a man identified as Wale Ibrahim for allegedly stabbing a 25-year-old, Fisayo Ajetumobi, to death during a dispute at Litaye Camp in Ondo East Local Government Area.
Police spokesperson, DSP Olushola Ayanlade, in a statement released in Akure on Wednesday, said the incident occurred on September 13 around 6:30 p.m. at a construction site along Litaye Camp, near Lake Road.
“In the process, the suspect, Wale Ibrahim, stabbed one Fisayo Ajetumobi, who was at the scene, inflicting a fatal wound on his chest,” Ayanlade explained.
