Kogi State Command has arrested Goodness Oshodi, a 19 year-old boy who allegedly buried his step-brother, Friday Oshhodi, for stealing N1000.

The incident happened Tuesday evening October 10, 2023, at Apamisede Community, in Adavi Local Government Area of the state.

The victim was however lucky to have been rescued by neighbours.

According to eyewitness accounts, Goodness’ mother had directed him to punish Friday for stealing her N1000.

It was gathered that Goodness beat Friday to stupor before buried him alive.
