He was said to have killed her after an argument over rent at their Oremeji, Ilasamaja, Mushin, Lagos home. Bakare was said to have been away from home for 12 years before his recent return to the area.

Some youths immediately grabbed Bakare and started beating him. He reportedly begged them not to kill him, but to call the police. Lagos State Police Command’s spokesman, Chike Oti, said Bakare had been arrested and taken to Homicide Section of the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department (SCIID) at Panti, Yaba.
