A 32-year-old bank worker, Olaoluwa Adejo, is in police custody for the alleged murder of his 28-year-old wife, Maureen, at their Oworonshoki home in Bariga, Lagos state.
According to their 5-year-old son, Richard, Olaoluwa allegedly tortured his wife with a belt, cut her with a machete before force-feeding her with rat poison.
Here are his words:
“I am Richard Adejo. I am five years old. My daddy beat my mummy with a belt; machete her here (shows arms), machete her here (shows legs). He used the belt on her here (points at face); forced my mummy to drink otapiapia (insecticide). My daddy took my mummy away.
“My daddy said my mummy should get out of the house. My mummy said no. In the night, my daddy woke my mummy up and said, ‘Mosquito is too much, let me go and buy otapiapia’. My daddy forced my mummy to drink it. She shook her head. She vomited.
“My daddy slapped my mummy. My mummy did not do anything to him. My daddy gave her one blow. My daddy kicked her. My daddy told her to get out of the house and carry her load. Small blood came out. My daddy slapped her, kicked her, machete her, blow her, and put otapiapia in her mouth and in the food,” Richard told newsmen on Monday.
