Edo State Police Command has narrated how a 17-year-old, Arthur Angel Jr. killed his 70-year-old father, Arthur Judah Angel over some money expected from Amnesty International.

DAILY POST reports that the Public Relations Officer of the Command, SP Chidi Nwabuzor, who spoke to newsmen in Benin City, said the suspect had severally threatened to kill his father on the ground that his father was expecting some money from Amnesty International.

Nwabuzor said the suspect who had since been arrested, killed the deceased with a sledge-hammer and buried him in a shallow grave behind his house.

According to him, “on the 15th of July, 2024, at about 09.00 hours, the Divisional Police Officer in charge of Ugboha division in Edo State received a complaint that one Arthur Angel Jr. (17 years) brought a complaint of a shallow grave discovery at the backyard of the compound where he lived with the deceased.

“Immediately, the DPO mobilized his men and they moved out to the scene. On getting there, they saw a shallow grave and decided to exhume the body.

“When the body was exhumed, they discovered that it was the lifeless body of Arthur Angel, 70, and at a close look, they saw a sharp injury on the back of the deceased head, and the body was taken to Uromi Hospital mortuary.

“The DPO said that preliminary investigation revealed that Arthur Angel Jr. had severally threatened to kill his father on the ground that his father was expecting some money from Amnesty International.

“The suspect had a feeling that the money had been paid to the deceased and decided to use the sledge-hammer to hit him behind the head while he was asleep.”

He said the suspect has been transferred from Ugboha to the homicide section of the Edo State Criminal Investigation Department for further investigation.

He said the incident happened at Ugboha community in Esan South East Local Government Area of Edo State.

Until his death, Arthur Judah Angel was an anti-death penalty advocate, and a human rights defender, who used his foundation, Life Wire International Foundation, to fight against the death penalty in the country.

He was said to have travelled to over 15 countries to speak out against the death penalty through his art exhibitions and drawings.

We Are Back With Today's Shocking Bad News

Gv

Where is his mother?
She must know about this killing and should be arrested for questioning.
May Arthur's soul rest in peace.

Moreover, Arthur wasn't the father of the bastard. No true son raises his hands upon the father talk of killing him. His mother should tell him whom his father is.

All these small boys of nowadays, all they do is practice cultism, smoke weed - colos- loud- and chase after girls.
A 17 year old boy should be bothered about shaping his life and not thinking about his father’s money to the extent that he hit him with a sledgehammer.
This one no be Angel, na demon.

Irony of life.
Who will speak up on his own son's death penalty sentence

Why is money so glorified in Nigeria?
Churches and mosques worship money they sell out to money.
The justice system is all about money, justice is for sale.
The politicians all about money.
Professors sale out for money, selling grades for money and eventually when called to moderate the national elections, they sale to the highest bidder.
The Nigerian women's emotion is moved only by money. The girls will follow you if you have money while even the married women will open their legs immediately at the scent of money.
Do I need to talk about the boys? Yahoo yahoo and ritualists all for money
Everything in that godforsaken, good-abandoned, truth-hating, lies-loving, morality-lacking country is all about money

Make God no allow us waste sperm born who go kill us.

Look at the kind of awesome personality his father is, yet greed and stupidity will not allow him make good use of his life.

If they give him that money now, it's certainly going to end in drinking parlour and kpekus.

Such a useless son.

Please feed him to the crocs alive

He advocated against death penalty all through his life and now his son is faced with death penalty

Don't expect any good news from Edo this period..

Hello friends before you engage in violence please kindly visit prison first and thank me later

This is getting worse

You Never See Anything Yet, Stay UPDATED....

The man was 53 when his son was born.
At that age,no more vitality or vigour to discipline and train a child properly.

But it's okay...men can have children at any age.

KILL him slowly + DIE painful DEATH
