A 29-year-old Kaduna-based tailor, Gado Yahaya, was yesterday arraigned before a Kaduna Magistrate Court for allegedly killing his neighbour during an argument over a bucket of water.

A resident of Rigasa, the community where the accused resides, said Yahaya allegedly fought with Liman Salisu during an argument over a bucket of water which resulted in Salisu’s death.

“He is a resident of Rigasa in Igabi Local Government Area of Kaduna State and was arraigned on charges of culpable homicide before a Kaduna Magistrate Court on Monday.

“The Prosecutor, Insp. Chidi Leo alleged that Yahaya killed Salisu with a pestle during their fight over the bucket of water.

“In the course of the fight, he went into the kitchen, picked a pestle and hit  Salisu on his head. He slumped and died on the way to the hospital.”

Chief Magistrate, Ibrahim Emmanuel, ordered that Yahaya be remanded in a correctional facility, adding that the court lacked jurisdiction to hear the matter. (The Nation)
