Tenant Sets Landlord Ablaze In Edo State by Nobody: 12:45am On Mar 18, 2016
A tenant, known as Mr. Jeff Obasohan, has allegedly
set his landlord, Pa Joseph Iyen, aged 83, ablaze in
his
residence on Uwa Street, between Second and Third
East Circular Road, Benin City, in Oredo Local
Government Area of Edo State.. It was gathered that there had been a protracted
quarrel between the octogenarian and his tenant
over
unpaid rent, while it was further learned that the
late
Pa Iyen had issued the suspect a quit notice on two occasions, when he (Obasohan) allegedly refused to
pay. But the disagreement was said to have
degenerated,
Wednesday, leading to the tragedy and the elderly
man was said to have died, following the severe
burns he sustained in the fire. The incident also drew the attention of residents in the
area who thronged the scene to sympathize with
the
victim’s family. The widow of the deceased, Mrs.
Esther Iyen, alleged
that the tenant had threatened her life and that of her
late husband while he had also failed to pay his
electricity bill. She said, “He does not pay his house
rent, he does
not pay the light bills. Since 2014, we said he should
leave the house, I don’t want trouble. He threatened
to kill me or my husband. We took him to court.
Then,
my husband fell sick. Later, they said that the case
had
been struck out.” When contacted, the state Police Public Relations
Officer, Osifo Abiodun, said that the case had been
transferred to the State Criminal Investigation
Department for further investigation.
