An eyewitness said the deceased insisted that he would take his bath first because he was sent on errand by the church.
It was learnt that their mother, Chinyere, waded into the matter and seized the bucket from them.
However, Elizabeth, said to be in her late 20s, went into their kitchen and brought out a knife with which she stabbed her brother .
Alhaji Shittu, the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) in Yashikira, confirmed the incident.
Shittu said that the matter had been transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department (CID) Ilorin for further investigation.
He added that the mother, who came to report the case, was also taken to Ilorin but returned home on Wednesday.
