A retired military officer, Lieutenant Commander A H Yusuf has reportedly been murdered by his own son over retirement money, reports thegazellenews.com.
This medium learnt that Yusuf's son demanded for a sum of N1.5 million from his retirement benefits, a request the late Yusuf rejected.
In annoyance, the son allegedly killed his father in the early hours of Wednesday, 21 December, 2022 at their residence located at Ejigun community in Adoodo Ota Local Government Area of Ogun State.

Neighbours described the deceased as a gentleman and an easily accessible man.
"He played and joked with everyone. I saw him last at the mechanic workshop. We both patronised the same mechanic. He brought his car for repainting. Up till now, the car is with the mechanic. He never returned alive to pick the car," a neighbour said noting further that the mechanic has vowed to repaint the car to the colour he required seeing this as his last wish even though he couldn't pay before his murder.
