The killing was perpetuated after Olorunleke stormed his house at Abe Cocoa Area of Okeila with three members of his gang now at large.
He reportedly stabbed his brother to death with a screwdriver and a knife, after which they stole his red coloured Bajaj motorbike with registration number ADK 100 UJ.
“They hit him in the stomach and pierced his intestine when his wife and children were not at home. He had confessed to have committed the offence, he said.
While narrating his own side of the story and why he killed his brother, the suspect described his brother as “stingy man”. We only wanted to take his money and leave his house but he wrestled with us which led to his death, he said.
“I did not follow them inside the room, but upon realising that my brother had been stabbed and was shouting, I rushed in and wanted to rescue him but he bit me and chopped off my finger.
