Badmus said the landlord accused the tenant of insulting him which led to the argument which degenerated into a fight.

He explained that: “While they were arguing, Mukailu carried a plank and hit our landlord on his head and he fell on the floor. Immediately Mukailu noticed this he ran away. Neighbours rushed our landlord to the hospital where he was admitted and died two days later.”

The police in the area declined to comment on the incident.
