81 months old Baby killed by the father

One Shomo Owoeye and his wife have arrested by the Ekiti state police over the death an 18-month-old baby in Ikere Ekiti.
The body of the one-year-old boy, Ayomide Ojo was on Sunday found in a well behind the victims' home at Agbado Street area of the state.
Apparently Shomo Owoeye was in a relationship with the victim's mother, Mrs. Oredola Olakunboye who had the child for him but the latter rejected the child and allegedly threatened to get rid of the child.
Police spokesman Victor Babayemi who  confirmed the incident quoted the victim's mother who is a widow as saying

“I and the man were not married. After my husband’s death, he used to come to our house to ask after our health. After sometime, we had a relationship and I got pregnant. I told him, but he said he was not responsible for the pregnancy and said I should terminate it. I did not and since I gave birth to the boy, he had been seeking ways to kill him.
“On Sunday, I was doing something outside our house and I went inside to take something. When I came out, my son was missing.”
Babayemi also said the body had been deposited at the morgue of the General Hospital in Ikere-Ekiti, adding that an autopsy has begun to ascertain how the boy died.
According to him: “The autopsy became necessary because the well in which the boy was dumped was covered with planks, which showed that some people opened the well and dumped the boy there.
“There were signs of violence on the boy’s head and no water came out of his mouth when his stomach was pressed after he was brought out of the well. This shows that he was killed before he was dumped in the well.”
