At about 4am today in Jenta Adamu, Jos, Plateau state, a 35 year-old man was said to have attacked and killed his own mother by chopping off her head with a machete after accusing her of being a witch. 

Linda Ikeji Blog reports that when youths in the area heard what he had done, they pounced on him, tied him up and beat him to a coma. They then called the police who took him away. It is yet uncertain whether he will survive or is already dead.
