LAGOS MARCH 20TH (URHOBOTODAY)-A medical doctor, Emmanuel Ogah, has killed his mother, alleging that she was fond of insulting him in public.
Dr. Ogah who has since been arrested committed the crime on Saturday after an altercation with his late mom. He said the woman, who was a food vendor, insulted him in the presence of her apprentices.
The Ogun Police Command has confirmed the arrest of Ogah.

In a statement issued in Abeokuta Saturday by its Public Relations Officer, DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi, the command said the arrest was sequel to a complaint by the elder brother of the suspect, Cletus Ogah.
It said the elder brother reported at Itele Ota Divisional headquarters that his younger brother had stabbed his 62 year-old mother, one Janet Ogah, to death.
The command said that following the complaint, the DPO of the division, CSP Lukman Raheem, led detectives to the scene at No 16, Ololade street, Lafenwa, Itele Ota, where the suspect was arrested.
“Preliminary investigation revealed that the suspect, who has just finished his NYSC programme, came back home three days earlier and had been having issues with the deceased since then.
“In his statement, the suspect claimed that his mother was in the habit of insulting and disgracing him in the presence of her apprentices, and that frustrated him into taking her life,” it said.
According to the command, the corpse of the deceased has been deposited at the Ota General Hospital morgue, for autopsy.
It said that the State Commissioner of Police, Ahmed Iliyasu, had ordered the immediate transfer of the suspect to homicide section of the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department, for further investigation.
