Police operatives in Yobe State have arrested a 24-year-old businessman, identified as Yunus Isa, in connection with the d£@th of his friend and business partner, Lawan Adamu.

It was gathered that the suspect allegedly caused the d£@th of the deceased in an attempt to avoid repaying a N500,000 loan he had borrowed from him.
�SaharaReporters reports that the deceased and Isa were traders, selling engine oil and other lubricants in Damaturu, the Yobe State capital.
�He reportedly took the N500,000 credit facility on false pretence of starting a new outlet with an agreed profit sharing formula. But he later used the capital to marry a wife.
�After repeated failure to remit the agreed percentage of the sharing formula, Lawan demanded a refund of his capital, consequent upon which Isa lured his victim to a solitary area of Shago Tara, and st@bbed him multiple times.
