A self-confessed mother has narrated the reason she killed her 18 months old baby, on interrogation after arrest.<\/p>\n

The lady, Funmilola Adisa, drowned her baby inside a bucket of water in her Gowon Estate apartment in Lagos State, the commercial nerve centre of Nigeria.<\/p>\n

To people’s amazement, it was the lady who reported herself to the police after committing the crime.<\/p>\n

The 22-year-old suspect, while in police custody, however, did not express regret over her action, rather, she took full responsibility for killing her baby.<\/p>\n

In her statement, Funmilola said she killed her one-year and six months old baby because she deprived her of fulfilling her lifetime ambition, which was to become a lawyer.<\/p>\n

“She deprived me of realising my dream of becoming a lawyer,” she said.<\/p>\n

When being interrogated by the police, she said: “I drowned my baby inside a bucket filled with water on Monday.<\/p>\n

“Thereafter, I reported myself at the Gowon Estate Police Division.<\/p>\n

“The police did not come immediately but when they did, they found the dead baby inside the bucket.<\/p>\n

“I was impregnated by a boy who attended same JAMB lesson with me.<\/p>\n

“But he rejected the pregnancy.<\/p>\n

“I wanted to abort the pregnancy but my father said no.<\/p>\n

“I passed my JAMB and was offered admission to study Law at the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, but I had to defer the admission because of the baby.<\/p>\n

“I wanted to take her to the orphanage home at first when it became difficult to take care of her.<\/p>\n

“I live with my sister who has no job and I am also not working.<\/p>\n

“I felt there was no use keeping her since I could not take care of her.<\/p>\n

“I killed her because I was frustrated, but most importantly, because she stood in the way of actualising my dream of becoming a lawyer.”<\/p>\n

After taking her statement at the Gowon Estate Division, Funmilayo was transferred to the Lagos State Police Command Headquarters in Ikeja.<\/p>\n

But later on, the state Commissioner of Police, Hakeem Odumosu, ordered her movement to the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department, Panti, Yaba, Lagos State.<\/p>\n

Reacting on the incident speaking anonymously with the media, Funmilola’s elder sister, said she was too shocked to believe what her sister did.<\/p>\n

“I suspect she is gradually developing mental problem.<\/p>\n

“Our mother had same mental problem before she died.<\/p>\n

“We live in the same apartment but have our separate bedrooms.<\/p>\n

“I didn\u2019t know when she drowned the baby, until the police arrived.”<\/p>\n

Police sources have said Funmilola would be recommended for medical checks for mental health issue, which it was said won’t stop her from facing the wrath of the law.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
