Woman arrested for killing sister over ₦800 debt

A tragic incident occurred in Akure, the Ondo State capital, where a trader, Bosede Iluyemi, allegedly killed her elder sister, Omowumi Tewogboye, following a dispute over an ₦800 debt.

Reports indicate that Omowumi had purchased tomatoes and pepper on credit from Bosede but failed to pay. The argument turned violent when Bosede reportedly grabbed her sister’s clothes, causing her to fall and sustain severe injuries.

Omowumi was rushed to a hospital but was confirmed dead on arrival.

Confirming the incident, the Ondo State Police Command said Bosede has been arrested and taken into custody. Police spokesperson, DSP Olusola Ayanlade, stated that investigations are ongoing and assured the public that justice will be served.
