A tragic incident unfolded in Jos, the capital city of Plateau State, on April 1st, resulting in the loss of a life. The altercation occurred at the Gada Biu motor park, where Mr. Abidemi Adegbola was involved in a dispute with another individual identified as Mr. Ekene Okoye.
The disagreement was reportedly said to have begun when Mr. Okoye confronted Mr. Adegbola about his smoking habits, prompting a heated exchange between the two men. Allegedly, Mr. Adegbola questioned Mr. Okoye’s authority to intervene in his personal affairs, escalating the confrontation.
