A 73-year old woman, Mrs Cecilia Attah, was on Wednesday killed by her son, Athanasius Igwenagum Attah, at Nru community, Nsukka Local Government Area of Enugu State.
It was reported that the deceased had a slight argument with her son, Athanasius, who used a plank to hit her on the head which led to her sudden death.
