According to the Public Relations Officer of the State Police, Daniel Ndukwe. He said the stepmother was arrested by operatives attached to the 9th Mile Police Division following a report to the police by her husband, Justine Egwuagu.
“Preliminary investigation shows that the suspect confessed to giving a noxious substance suspected to be an insecticide to the child.
She claimed that her action was due to her husband’s inability to take care of her and their daughter; and that she wanted the child to become sick so that her husband could spend money to treat him. The child was confirmed dead in the hospital and his corpse deposited in the mortuary for autopsy.
