Baba Timo Killed Over N30 Local Dry Gin

A 57-year-old man has been reported dead after his friend allegedly stabbed him during a disagreement over sachet of dry gin worth about N30 in Otto community, an outskirt of Lagos.


The police officers in charge of the community have gone on a raiding spree. They were said to have roused some people from sleep and taken them away. The officers, it was gathered, came twice to raid the community and allegedly whisked away about 30 suspects.

It was gathered that the whole sad drama started when the victim, identified as Mr Abudu (aka Baba Timo), who had moved from Bariga to Otto some months ago, was cooling down with the alcohol drink at a joint with his friend (names yet unknown) when trouble began.

Those who were present said it was more like a joke around 8p.m last Friday, but things took a new dimension at about 10 p.m., after the duo engaged in a fight, using dangerous weapons such as broken bottle and cutlass on each other.

It was learnt that because of the harmattan cold, most residents had gone to bed while others could not intervene because of the use of dangerous weapons by the two parties.

Baba Timo reportedly inflicted machete cuts on his friend’s head and hand, while his friend used a broken bottle on his (Baba Timo) neck.

Unfortunately, Baba Timo died on the spot while his friend, who sustained injuries on his head and neck is currently receiving treatment at an undisclosed hospital in Lagos.

One of the residents in the community named Mrs Titi Balogun narrated how the Police barged in on them and whisked her husband and son away.

“At few minutes past 11p.m., I woke one of my sons to put off the generator, immediately he did that and locked the back door, I noticed movement outside through my window and later someone began to hit on the back door very hard.


“I came out of my room and went to open the door and behold, they were police officers. One of them asked me why we put off our generator, and I said because it was late. They then went into one of the rooms and woke my husband, who was sleeping. They entered the other room, woke one of my sons and his friend and then arrested them," she recalled.
