A suspected murderer, Umar Umar, has disclosed the reason why he killed one Mustapha Mohammed.

According to Umar, he decided to take Mohammed’s life during an argument because the deceased failed to show respect to elders.

Police investigations revealed that Umar hacked Mohammed to death, and then buried him in a shallow grave on a farm in the Mokwa Local Government Area of Niger State.

After his arrest by the police, the suspect stated that he was angry at Mohammed for being disrespectful to him, as well as several elders in the area.

“I got angry and killed him for disrespecting me and the elders living in the same area with him. He lacked respect and this has affected him.

It is a pity he has paid the price for being disrespectful to his seniors. I purposely killed him for lacking respect for his elders.

He has learned his lesson the hard way, it’s unfortunate.

I have no regrets because that is what Mohammed deserved. He never listened to the advice of elders, he talked to people anyhow,” he explained.

Police officials have revealed that in the light of his confession, Umar will soon be charged with the crime and punished accordingly.
