A middle-aged man, Kazeem Muhammed, has fled after he killed his father following a dispute in Kwankashe area of Suleja, Niger State.
The sad incident was said to have occurred on Wednesday morning.
It was learnt that Kazeem had been angry with his father for getting married to a second wife for over a year.
According to Daily Trust, a brother to the deceased, Isah, said that soon after killing his father, Kazeem fled.
