Lady Kills Her One-Month-Old Baby, Dumps Corpse In Ogun River

LAGOS MARCH 29TH (NEWSRANGERS)-Ogun State Police Command has arrested Sukurat Olajoke, 35, for allegedly killing her- month-old -a baby girl.
The suspect, who allegedly dumped it in the Ogun river, has confessed that she killed the baby out of frustration because the man responsible for the pregnancy rejected it.
Olajoke who had six children for three different men told the police that she had no money to take care of the newly born, so she decided to kill it and throw it into the river.

Ogun state Police Public Relations Officer ((PPRO) DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi, in a statement, said: “The suspect was arrested when policemen attached to Enugada Divisional police Headquarters Abeokuta, who was on routine patrol with the DPO, SP Baba Hamzat, saw the woman throwing something suspiciously into the river.

” The suspicious behavior of the woman, after throwing the object into the river attracted the policemen who quickly apprehended her for questioning.
“It was during interrogation that the suspect, who lives at Agboole Alakoye area of Igbo Ora in Oyo state, confessed that what she threw into the river was the body of her month- old- baby, who she killed out of frustration. She confessed further that the man who was responsible for the pregnancy, rejected her and the baby, and since she has no means of taking care of the baby, she decided to kill it and throw her into the river.

“Preliminary investigation revealed that the suspect had given birth to six other children for three different men before she got pregnant for Hakeem, who refused to accept the paternity of the child.

The DPO later engaged the service of local divers, who helped in recovering the corpse of the child, and it has been deposited at the general hospital mortuary.

“Meanwhile, commissioner of police, Mr. Edward Awolowo Ajogun, has ordered the immediate transfer of the suspect to the homicide section of the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department for further investigation and prosecution”.
