He is now facing a  murder charge at Magistrate’s Court  Lagos under the Criminal Code.
Yusuf, who is now in prison custody at Ikoyi, reportedly landed a vicious blow on late Ego’s nose for abusing him during a quarrel.
The incident happened at about 9.00 p. m at Olufowobi street, Itire, Lagos where both the defendant and the victim reside.

P.M.NEWS gathered the woman was seriously injured and she started bleeding and later slumped. Before she was rushed to a hospital she was already dead.
