Photo:Mother Stabs 7Year Old Son For Sleeping With Step-Sister

A seven-year-old boy, identified simply as Promise, has been stabbed by his mother with broken bottles for allegedly defiling his two-year-old step-sister and the daughter of a neighbour. The incident happened on Monday on Tunde Olusola Street, in the Ijaiye-Ojokoro area of Lagos.

The mother, Mrs. Blessing Fred, was said to have gone out with her daughter on Sunday, leaving Promise behind. It was gathered that while the mother was away, Promise went to visit five-year-old Yemi (pseudonym) the neighbour’s daughter at her parents’ apartment. He was said to have met Yemi alone and took her to his mother’s room. On getting to the room, he reportedly told her to remove her clothes and lie down. It was said that he slept on top of the girl and fiddled with her private parts.
