According to a report by Vanguard,
Sola who is a Wheelbarrow pusher
and alleged troublemaker, was
accused of stealing money from
roadside beggars.
A commercial driver identified as
Kehinde Akangbi has been accused
of setting his 22 year old son, Sola
ablaze for allegedly stealing from a
roadside beggar in Omu-Aran in
Kwara state.
He was apprehended and then taken
to his father who allegedly took him
to the bush at Omu-Aran-Isanlu-Isin
road where he tied his hands and leg
and then set him on fire.
Sola, who was still alive when he was
rescued, told his rescuers that his
father was responsible for the act.
He was rushed to the Ajisafe
Hospital, Omu-Aran where he was
treated for high degree burns. He
passed away as the fire had burnt
most parts of his body.
The mother of the deceased, Rachael,
who was at the hospital when her
son died, expressed her sadness at
the allegation that her son’s father
who she has since separated from,
carried out such an act on their son.
The Kwara state Police Public
Relation Officer Ajayi Okunsanmi
confirmed the incident and said the
suspect was already in police custody
and that investigation was ongoing.
