CALABAR —  A 21-year-old man,  Samuel Eyo Nsa, has stabbed his  78-year-old father, Chief Eyo Nsa, to death at Eseko village, Creek Town in Odukpani Local Government Area of the state.

His reason: the late father allegedly  refused to defend him after he was caught stealing a neighbour’s  goat.

The incident happened on Children’s Day when Samuel decided to celebrate the day with a goat stolen from a neighbour, Otobong Matthew, with  which he prepared pepper soup to entertain his friends.

“When Otobong discovered that evening that one of his goats was missing, he searched everywhere for it and  someone told him that he saw Samuel with a goat earlier in the day and had slaughtered it to prepare pepper soup for his friends to celebrate the Children’s Day,” Alex Edet, a Creek Town youth told Vanguard.

The revelation, our source said, made Otobong  to report the matter to Samuel’s father that his goats were always missing and that someone had told him that Samuel stole his goat to celebrate the Children’s Day. He demanded payment for his goat.

“Chief Nsa was tired of appearing in the village square to defend his son and to pay fines for things he kept stealing and, therefore, told the owner of the goat to  report the matter to the police,” our source said.

According to Edet, after Otobong left the old man’s premises and was on his way to the police station, Samuel who was hiding behind the window listening to the discussion, suddenly appeared, accusing his parents of not defending him and threatened to deal with them.

Afraid that the boy would carry out his threat, his mother escaped, while Samuel allegedly gave her a hot chase brandishing a machete but when he got to a point where he met some youths decided to return to the house to attack his aged father who was said to be old and almost blind.

“He inflicted several machete cuts on the old man who died on the spot and swore not to spare his mother,” Vanguard was told.

Samuel later attempted to escape as he fled into the bush  but was apprehended by some  youths in the area.

“We  gave him a hot chase and got hold of him in the  CreekTown forest and handed him over to the police at the  Odukpani Police division,” said one of the youths.

He was after his arrest transferred to the State Police Headquarters in Calabar.

The Police Public Relations Officer of the state Police Command, Mr. John Umoh, said the suspect would be charged to court.

A child killing his parent, whose charater does dis child portray? The old man couldnt pay the fine for his son's act dis time he pays with his life. Lesson, ''train a child in the way he should go when he is old he shall not depart''.

RIP to grandpa!

When the bible spare the rod and spoil the child, it had wisdom; jus wish the world can see.

Chai,may the soul of the papa rest in peace.oh lord pls i beg of u don't give me child that will kill me or spoil my name oh.

This story is so funny, talking about sh*t hitting the fan.
Choi the boy wan chop isi ewu on children's day.
But the boy should have stolen ribena and indomie which are known for children instead of thinking of pepper soup which is meant for adults.

In any case I would love to watch the video of when he will be sentenced for hacking a poor old helpless man to death. Infact the curses already following him are way more than any judge could pronounce. I am already angry now ....

If the story is true then that boy must be a bastar-d.

The boy, samuel, ojikwa anya ya? Ife nka ogba aka? Alu!

The story sounds like something from a primary school comprehension passage.
