A 45-year old woman, Kafayat Lawal, has landed in trouble after she allegedly stabbed her 17-year old daughter, Ayomide Adekoya, with a broken bottle for passing a night outside home and she died in the process.
P.M.EXPRESS reports that the woman has been arrested by the Police operatives from Ogun State Command.
This was disclosed by DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi, spokesperson of the State Police Command.
He stated the suspect was arrested following a piece of information received by the DPO Ogijo Divisional Headquarters, CSP Mohammed Suleman Baba, at about 2.30 pm, that the suspect locked her two daughters in a room, where she beat and injured them with a broken bottle.
”Upon the information, the DPO mobilized his men and moved to the scene, where the two victims were rescued and taken to hospital for treatment before one of them gave up the ghost.The suspect was then arrested and taken into custody.
On interrogation, the woman, who claimed to have separated from her husband about nine years ago, informed the Police that her two daughters left home during the Sallah and did not return till the following day.”
“This infuriated her, and when she wanted to beat them, people around pleaded on their behalf and she left them, only for them to go out again the following day and passed the night outside. It was the annoyance that made her lock them inside and injured both of them with a broken bottle.”
“The older one, Blessing Adekoya, 19, was injured on the hand, while her younger sister, Ayomide, was stabbed on the chest and unfortunately gave up the ghost while receiving treatment.”
The Commissioner of Police, CP Edward Awolowo Ajogun, has ordered the immediate transfer of the suspect to Homicide Section of the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department for further investigation over the act.
