Woman gives reason why she killed her newborn baby

She has been arrested by men of the Ogun
state police command. During interrogation,
Foluke claimed she did the unbelievable act
because her two other children were not
being taken care of by her husband.

The Police Public Relations Officer in the
state, Abimbola Oyeyemi, in a statement, said
the incident, which happened at Ipamesan
area of Sango Ota, was reported at Sango
Divisional Headquarters by the vice chairman
of the community development association in
the area.
Oyeyemi said: “Immediately the case was
reported, the DPO, Sango Ota Division, SP
Akinsola Ogunwale, led detective to the scene,
17 Ilupeju Street, Anishere Unity Estate, Sango
Ota, where the woman was promptly arrested.
“On interrogation, the suspect claimed that her
two other children are not being taken care of
by her husband, so the new baby will be an
additional burden on her.
“Further investigation revealed that this is not
the first time the woman will attempt killing
her child. It was gathered that she once threw
one of her daughters into pit latrine on
delivery, but the baby was rescued. The dead
baby was recovered and taken to the station,
where it was released to the husband.
“The Commissioner of Police, CP Ahmed
Iliyasu, has directed that the suspect be
transferred to the Homicide Section of the
State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence
Department, CIID.”
