In Ogun State, tragedy struck in Ogunso area of Otta in the Ado- Odo/Otta Local Government Area when a woman, identified as Adeyanju Funmilayo, allegedly stabbed her 3-year-old son to death.
Funmilayo was said to have inflicted multiple injuries on her son identified as Emmanuel by stabbing him in the head and other parts of the body with a knife about 4pm yesterday.
The boy died as a result of the multiple injuries he sustained after writhing in pain and rolling in his blood for a short while.
Late Emmanuel was a product of an alleged incestuous relationship between Funmilayo and her biological father, which occurred about three years ago.
When contacted, the State Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, Muyiwa Adejobi, who confirmed the incident said policemen from Ota Division had visited the scene of the crime and taken the corpse of the child to the mortuary.
Adejobi also disclosed that the woman, who was immediately arrested by the police, put up some strange behaviours when questioned about the alleged crime.
“The police have been to the scene to recover the body of the child. The woman has been acting strangely like a person who is of unsound mind. The police would carry out proper investigation.
“The police will work on the state of mind of the woman and we’ll have to seek the help of an expert to know her mental state,” he said.
