Dad Padlocked Ogbanje Son’s Mouth: Evil Father Who Killed Child Arrested In Meiran Lagos
A wicked father has been arrested for allegedly killing his own son in Lagos State Nigeria.
The incident happened yesterday at no 7Adetola Adelaja Street in Meiran.
He allegedly padlocked his son’s mouth to prevent him from shouting as he beats him to death.
According to PM, Chris Elvis a computer part seller allegedly locked up his son, Godrich in the room, puts padlock in his mouth and beat life out of him with an object that inflicted deep cuts all over his body. He claimed the boy was an Ogbanje child (evil child that brings misfortune).
The co-tenants who became aware of the murder hinted the landlady, One Mrs Popoola who rushed home and found the lifeless boy.
Mr Popoola immediately rushed to Meiran Police station to report the case. Last night around 9pm, Elvis was arrested as he tried to run away.
After allegedly killing the boy, he locked him in one of his rooms. He told the police that nothing happened but when the police forced the locked room open, they found the dead boy with padlock in his mouth.
Husband of the landlady, Mr. Olusola Adejumo said that the deceased boy was four years old and that the man had been acting strange since he packed into the compound last year.
According to him, when Elvis came into the compound about six months ago, he came with his children and wife and that he claimed to sell computer accessories, adding that in the first two weeks of his stay in the house, he beat up his wife thoroughly.
He said he had gone to the police station to report the incident and that the police invited them to settle the matter and warned Elvis not to beat his wife again or he would be arrested.
Adejumo explained that sometime ago, the man travelled with his family and did not return with his wife, but came with the four-year old boy and another woman, whom he claimed was now his wife because he had parted ways with his former wife.
He said that yesterday, his new wife rushed out of the house shouting for help that the man wanted to kill his son, adding that the man came out of the house and chased his wife with a cutlass, calling the woman a witch.
It was gathered that the man came back into his room and locked it, padlocked the boy’s mouth and beat him till he died.
The police at Meiran took the boy’s corpse away and deposited it at the Ota General Hospital, while the man was detained and would be transferred to Area ‘M’ Police Division in Lagos later for further investigation.
After the incident on Monday, the police also arrested the landlady who came to report the matter at the police station and detained her till Tuesday morning, while allegedly demanding for N50,000 to bail the innocent woman.
A tenant in the house, Apostle Freedom Damian said Elvis had been a strange man in the house as he do not talk to anybody and was always keeping to himself and nobody could ask him questions. [ PM News Lagos]
What a wicked father and why did the police arrest the landlady who reported the murder?
May the soul of this innocent boy rest in peace.

In europe, this man would have long been sectioned under the mental health act before he could have had the opportunity to kill. It is quite clear that he is mentally unwell. Why did the child’s mum leave her son with this mad man. I am sure that she was aware of his strange behaviour prior to this incidence.I weep for this poor child. Why could n’t they have given me this lovely boy to look after and love. This news has just spoilt the rest of my day.

Tears rolling from my eyes as I type this. Ohooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!. The innocent and helpless boy must have seen days before his death. Oh God, who knows what this boy would have been tomorrow. who know If he would have been the great leader of this country that would have deliver us . I blame the mother who abandon this tender baby to the mad husband. No responsible mother will abandon her child. Rest in peace my angel,still imagining how you are struggling to live.
