**The Silent Tragedy: The story of a deadly dispute over palm oil**
In the heart of a peaceful village in Nigeria, a harmless argument turned into a tragedy. This is the story of Lukman Adejoju, a man whose name should have remained unknown, and his mother, Aminat, a hundred-year-old woman, whose name will now be remembered for tragic reasons.
The sinister event took place one afternoon in April, when mother and son were going to the farm together. An argument suddenly broke out between them, concerning the proceeds from the sale of palm oil that they had made. A witness says that the dispute arose from the sharing of profits between the two protagonists and a laborer who had assisted them in the sale.
The violence that followed shocked the village residents. Lukman, driven by anger, allegedly attacked his mother, thus ending her century-old life. It is said that the precious palm oil, a source of subsistence for this modest family, was the detonator of a tragedy whose consequences are immeasurable.
The shock wave spread throughout the village, prompting the intervention of the police to calm the situation.
This act of violence reveals a dark social reality, that of precariousness and tension which can reign within the most modest households. The pressing need to meet one’s needs can sometimes take precedence over filial love and lead to unsuspected tragedies.
Aminat’s tragic fate cruelly reminds us that behind every news story lie broken lives, forgotten stories, and unspeakable pain. This seemingly banal dispute over palm oil became the scene of a tragedy that will forever mark our memories.
Let us hope that this sad story serves as a lesson, and that peace and harmony can finally reign in this village scarred by a quarrel as futile as it is deadly.
