Landlord arrested for k*lling a tenant’s baby during a brawl
Police operatives in Bayelsa State have arrested a 35-year-old landlord, Oyeinmiebi Selekowei, for allegedly k*lling his tenant’s 3-month-old baby during a brawl.
The unfortunate incident occurred on September 30, at Amassoma community in Southern Ijaw LGA of the state.
It was gathered that trouble started when the suspect’s tenant, identified as Oscar Pere, tried to stop him from as*aulting his (the suspect) mom. He allegedly thr*atened to deal with him and k*ll his child.
Pere, in a complaint lodged with the Government through its Gender Response Initiative Team (GRIT), stated that the suspect transferred aggression on him by holding his child upside down and h*tting the back of the child’s head against the door until the baby d*ed.
Although, the father of the child has reportedly refused to press charges against the suspect, officials of GRIT said they are preparing to press charges.
“I told you to let God f*ght because vengeance belongs to God. I will not want to offend my God by doing things outside his will,’ Pere reportedly told officials of GRIT.
