Here is why I poisoned my stepson - First wife reveals

 


Mariam Musa, a 24-year-old pregnant woman, has been arrested in Ede, Osun State for allegedly poisoning her three-year-old stepson, Rokeeb Musa. 

This occurred on December 26, 2020. 

She told newsmen that she killed the toddler out of jealousy, saying their husband; Musa, loved the son more than her daughter. 

Mariam, who is the first wife of the husband, further confessed that she poisoned the boy with a pesticide (Rocket). 

The five months old pregnant woman confessed while being paraded by the Commissioner of Police in Osun State, Wale Olokode, on Tuesday at the State Command, Osogbo. 

Speaking, she accused the husband of showing more love and favour to the second wife because she had a male child while she (first wife) is yet to have a male. 

“I was sleeping inside my room when the boy came to me and I gave him the insecticide to drink. My husband was showing love and favour to the second wife. 

“I learnt fashion designing before I became a pap seller because the business was not moving. My husband arrived on the evening of my graduation as a certified fashion designer and spent N70 but he spent a lot during the second wife’s graduation as a hairdresser.

“My husband bought plasma and cable television for the second wife while I have no television in my room. The second wife has been putting up some funny attitudes. She doesn't answer if I greet her, even when I was sick, she didn't ask after my health,” she reacted. 

After the death of the boy, Mariam said she confessed the crime to her husband due to her conscience. 

The police boss in the state, Olokode, however, told newsmen that the second wife reported the case at ‘B’ Division Ede on the same day of the incident. 

Olokode added that the child was taken to Muslim Hospital Ede but unfortunately, died while receiving treatment on 31 of December 2020.

Kanu, Igboho won’t break Nigeria, Tafawa-Balewa’s spirit should be appeased

 The Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has hinted that Nigeria will break up.  Primate Ayodele noted that Nigeria's break up would not be though Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, or Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho.  While speaking with newsmen, the cleric said some powerful forces like the spirit of Nigeria's nationalist, Abubakar Tafawa-Balewa would lead to Nigeria's peaceful break-up.  He warned that if Nigerians fail to appease Tafa-Balewa’s spirit and these other powerful forces, the country will break up peacefully.  Primate Ayodele, however, urged the government not to ignore the cries of IPOB and those agitating for the Oduduwa Republic because that would also lead to the country's disintegration.  He said: “The spirit of Igbo is no more in Nigeria, and since their spirit is no more in Nigeria, the country will break peacefully. It's not this IPOB, Oduduwa, that will brea...
