Yobe man murders business partner over N500,000 debt
A 24-year-old man from Yobe State has been arrested for allegedly murdering a business associate over a debt of N500,000.
Police say Yunus Isa killed Lawan Adamu, also 28, in Damaturu, the state capital, after failing to repay the money. The two men were traders dealing in engine oil and other lubricants.
Isa had reportedly borrowed the sum under false pretences, claiming it was to open a new outlet with a profit-sharing agreement. However, he is said to have used the money to fund his marriage instead.

JUST IN: Lagos shuts Idera market over dirty condition
The Lagos state government has shut down the Idera Market in the Oshodi-Isolo Local Council Development Area over unsanitary conditions.
Corps Marshal of the Lagos Environmental Sanitation Corps, popularly known as KAI, Maj. Olaniyi Olatunbosun (rtd), said ‘the market stinks’.
He said: “We shut Idera market because it stinks. They had probably not cleared the drainages for over one year and everywhere was smelly. So we shut the market based on the commissioner’s directive. And when they are ready to do the proper thing, the market will be reopened. It might take days or weeks, but it has to be clean.

“Though they complained of ineffective PSP operators in clearing their waste, we found out that they most likely don’t even patronise the PSP operators. Besides, Idera is not the only market in the Oshodi area so let them do the right thing by cleaning their space and the market will be reopened.”
