The Lagos state police have arrested and currently detained
two siblings and their half-brother for killing their brother, Yusfu
Oshun, 25, over inheritance at the Satellite Police Division.
The
suspects identified as Abdulfatai Oshun, 31; Shakiru Oshun, 22, and
their half-brother, Sebeli Olatunji, 33 for killing their brother, Yusfu
Oshun, 25 were said to have strangulated their brother to death during a
fight at their residence at 17, Kano Street, residence, Mobile Estate,
Satellite Town, Lagos.
It was learnt that the victim and his
brothers weren't getting along over how the money should be shared from
the proceeds gotten from selling their Kano Street residence, a
four-bedroom flat, an inheritance from their late father.
Sources
disclosed that trouble started when a prospective buyer offered to pay
N17 million for the property, and Abdulfatai, Yusfu and Shakiru, whose
biological father owned the property, started quarrelling over who gets
what.
It was gathered that Abdulfatail and Shakiru agreed on how
the proceed would be shared, but Yusuf opposed it. His refusal was said
to have led his brothers to stab him while sleeping in December 2013,
which he survived and the Police at Satellite Division were alerted and
the brothers were asked to write an undertaking never to fight
again.
Last week Thursday, things however took a different turn when the brothers learnt that the buyer was coming with the money.
Yusuf was elated and told his friends around town that he was going to
be rich. But his joy was cut short when he got home and a fight broke
out between him and his two siblings which eventually led to his death.
According
to a source, the victim's body was found on Thursday afternoon by his
half brother, Olatunji, who also lives in the apartment.
“Olatunji
was arrested by the Police because they suspected he might have a hand
in the killing. The quarrel among the brothers is well known to
everyone.”
