Security guard stabbed to death over N1000 tip
Ahmed Oyesiji, a security guard in Yaba, Lagos, has been stabbed to death by a colleague during a dispute over a N1000 tip.
The suspect, Moshood Adigun, has been detained by the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department according to Punch News.
It was gathered that the deceased had earlier lent out a sum of N4000 to his killer who was yet to submit a refund before a fight ensued on Monday, February 19, 2018.
Oyesiji had reportedly insisted on holding on to the entire amount given to the pair as part of the money expected for collection.
"They worked as security guards in the community. Moshood (Adigun) owed Ahmed (Oyesiji) N4,000.
"Somebody gave them N1,000 while they were on duty on Monday. Instead of them to share the money, Ahmed said he would not give Moshood his share. He said Moshood’s debt remained N3,500.
"They argued over it and fought.
"After they were separated, Moshood went for a bottle, broke it and stabbed him in the neck. He was bleeding heavily and within five minutes, he died,” says a witness who spoke to Punch.
The corpse of the deceased has been deposited at the Mainland General Hospital, Yaba, while the murder suspect prepares for an arraignment in court.
