A 22-year-old lady, Adisa Funmilola, has drowned her baby
because she prevented her from going to the university to study law. .
According to Vanguardngr, she drowned the one-year and six
months old baby inside a bucket of water in her apartment at Plot 22, Gowon
Estate, Lagos, on Monday, and then reported herself to the Police. .
During interrogation, she blamed her action on frustration,
saying her baby deprived her of actualising her dream of becoming a lawyer. .
She explained that she was impregnated by one Yusuf Folarin,
while both were attending a JAMB class at City of Success in Abeokuta, Ogun
State.
However, Folarin denied it and request that the pregnancy be
aborted. Along the line, she said she was offered admission into the Obafemi
Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, to study Law,
but had to defer the admission because of the baby. .
.
Surprisingly, Folarin did not show remorse for her action.
She said: “I killed my baby and reported myself to the police. I filled a
bucket with water, dipped her inside and held her head until she died. .
.
I did it for three reasons. First, I didn’t have the
financial might to take care of her. Second, I was tired and frustrated. But
the most painful reason is that she deprived me of actualising my dream of
becoming a lawyer. .
I would have aborted the pregnancy, but my father advised me
against it. The person that is responsible for the pregnancy rejected me. I
live with my sister, who has no job and I am also not working.” .
Asked if she was aware of the magnitude of her offence, she
gave a wry smile, and muttered: “The most important thing is that I have killed
the baby.” .
Her elder sister, who expressed shock at her sibling’s
action, said she was at home on the day of the incident, but never knew what
the latter was doing until policeman stormed their apartment. .
She said: “I suspect she is mentally deranged because our
mother had a similar mental issue before she died.” .
The Police said the suspect undergo psychiatric test but
that will not stop her from facing the consequence of her action.
... and if you had become a lawyer you are in heaven and all the problems in the world would disappear? By engaging in casual sex you brought this to yourself and ended up killing an innocent child. Only if you had listened to the wise counsel of reasonable people...
