But for the quick intervention of bystanders, a 20-year-old suspected Yahoo Boy, Daniel Bamidele, would have sent his parents to early graves penultimate Thursday.
Daniel’s mother, Titilayo, was said to have run out of their home in Apabielesin area of Ibadan, Oyo State with serious wounds, calling for help as her son sneaked into their home and attacked her and the father with a machete.
The alarm raised by her had attracted bystanders, some of whom rushed into the house, held Daniel down and dispossessed him of the machete he had used to attack his parents.
When he had been dispossessed of the long knife by neighbours who held him down and freed his father from his grip, Daniel explained that he had been earning a living from cybercrime otherwise called yahoo business for some time.
He said his parents were aware that he already built a three-bedroom bungalow from the proceeds of the cybercrime.
He said he had promised that he would get a store for his mother and stock it with goods so she could become a big trader once he recorded a breakthrough.
He added that his mother and elder brother connived to fleece him of the sum of N2.5 million despite the promise he made to get her a store and stock it with goods.
Daniel said: “I purposely lured my mother from a church programme she was attending, and as soon as we arrived home, I attacked her with a knife and was already inflicting cuts on her body when my father tried to save her from me.
“I attacked my father too because if I had not stabbed both of them, they would have succeeded in killing me.”
Speaking further on his reasons for attacking his mother and father with a knife, Daniel accused his mother of giving him a fake name which rendered useless the magic black soap he had secured from the priest of a white garment church.
He also noted that he made his elder brother his next of kin in his bank documentation but the same elder brother had been trying to play smart with his money.
He said: “I am a 200-level student of LAUTECH (Ladoke Akinola University of Technology) and I have built a three-bedroom bungalow from the money I made from doing yahoo business.
“I am angry with my parents, particularly my mother, for giving me a fake name instead of her real name.
“There is a particular black magic soap that I have been using lately. The soap was given to me by the priest of a white garment church named Mathew.
“I was the one who bought a generator for Pastor Mathew’s church around Ona Grammar School in Ogbomosho.
“The soap was meant to bring me good fortune, but there was the need for me to call my mother’s name into it before it could work.
“My mother told me that her name is Titilayo. But when I called the name into the soap, it did not work. Hence, I got angry and decided to stab her.”
Daniel’s mother, Titilayo, however said she did not collect any money from him.
She said: “I was called on the phone to come pick up my son from school at LAUTECH when he started exhibiting mental illness.
“When we got home, his father brought a native medicine home and gave him to use. He slept off after taking the medicine.
“However, when he woke up, he demanded the whereabouts of his phone and I told him I did not take his phone. He landed several blows on me.
“He is a liar; I did not collect any money from him.”
But Bamidele’s father accused his wife of being in the know of everything pertaining to how his son ventured into yahoo business and how he built a house from the money he made from the fraudulent activity.
“My wife was the one that indulged him (Daniel). She knew when her son started building a house, yet she did not tell me,” he said.
