A police officer with the Bayelsa State Police Command has been arrested for killing his colleague over N20,000 cash gift.
According
to NAN, the incident happened earlier today after an argument over the
sharing formula of the N20,000 cash reward given to them after an
operation.
Trouble
started when the deceased officer told his colleague that they should
share part of the money with their DPO while the other objected.
The enraged officer allegedly shot his colleague on the head when he insisted that the DPO must get part of the largesse.
The remains of the deceased officer have been deposited at Federal Medical Center morgue in Yenagoa.
The deceased is survived by 2 wives and 8 children.
