The Edo State Police Command has confirmed that Julius Bello, an APC chieftain, was killed by his son, Irobudo.

The police spokesperson, Eno Ikoedem, said the suspect is still at large and that an investigation has started.

Bello, popularly known as De Lord Ogata, was the APC Ward Three Chairman in Fugar, Estako Central Local Government Area.

Family sources said his son returned home from Lagos at the weekend and attacked him on Sunday with a sledgehammer.

Another source said the son had been told by a prophet that his father was the reason he was poor.

The family is heartbroken over their loss, and the police are still looking for the person who did it.
