After his unnamed brother allegedly accused him of stealing the N40,000 held in a family safe, the man is claimed to have killed himself because he was unable to take being ridiculed and labelled a thief.

His relatives and neighbors began looking for him in the neighborhood after he committed the murder but were unable to find him.

Two days after he vanished, they allegedly discovered his lifeless body in the bush.
