A farmer has been apprehended by the Police men for allegedly killing a herdsman after he accused him of his lost cow.
A farmer, Friday Achalla, has been arrested by the police for allegedly killing a herdsman, Bonu Usmon, in Ikire, Osun State.
PUNCH Metro learnt that Achalla and Usmon had a misunderstanding in the
Sumoye area of the town on Monday, which degenerated into a fight and
the eventual death of the herdsman.
Achalla, it was gathered, was in his farm when Usmon approached him and
inquired about his lost cow, asking the farmer if he had sighted the
animal.
The farmer, who accused Usmon of invading his farm with cows in the
past, was said to have been infuriated and the two men reportedly
engaged in a fight.
Usmon, it was further learnt, stabbed Achalla, and in retaliation, the
farmer was said to have inflicted a deep machete cut on the deceased.
Another farmer in the Sumoye area, who spoke on condition of anonymity,
told our correspondent that the deceased, who ran out of the scene in
pain, was rushing back to the town when he slumped, having lost a lot of
blood as a result of the injury.
The acting Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Mustafa
Katayeyanjue, told PUNCH Metro that the suspect had been arrested.
He explained that the incident happened around 2.30 p.m. on Monday.
Katayeyanjue stated, “A herder, Bonu Usmon, was reportedly found
bleeding profusely from a deep machete cut on his left hand and he was
subsequently rushed to the Catholic Hospital, Oluyoro, Apomu, for
medical attention.
“But he died while receiving treatment due to excessive loss of blood.
His remains have been deposited in the hospital’s morgue for autopsy.”
According to him, preliminary investigation revealed that Achalla, who
was arrested where he was seeking medical intervention, also had a cut.
Katayeyanjue stated, “The suspect was found with a deep cut on his
left hand, which he allegedly sustained when he challenged the deceased
for destroying his crops by leading cows to graze in the area.
“The two men fought and Achalla inflicted injuries on the deceased. Investigation is in progress.”
