This is wickedness!
Operatives of the Nigeria Police in Bauchi State have arrested one Habibu Bala of Ningi Local Government Area of the state for allegedly killing his five-day-old son with insecticide, because “I have no money to organise naming ceremony for the child.”
The arrest happened as a septuagenarian, Joseph Adetunji, who allegedly bathed his son’s face with acid, yesterday appeared before an Ojo Magistrates’ Court, Lagos.
Confirming the arrest of Bala, Bauchi State Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Mr. Kamal Abubakar, disclosed this yesterday, while briefing journalists on the successful operations carried out within the week.
