Baby found in dustbin

Ronke Olayinka, 40, a petty trader and
mother of 3 kids, excluding Abdullahi,
recently used a Razor blade to cut the hands
of Abdullahi at Pipeline Street, Oke-Odo,
Lagos State. The 10-year-old primary 2 pupil
said: “She inflicted blade cuts on my hands
because I went to a party
opposite our house to eat. There was no
food at home.
I was hungry, so I assisted the people
holding the party to carry chairs. I knew that
if I assisted them, they would give me food.
They gave me food. My sister went to report
to my mummy. My mummy called me and
started cutting my hands with a blade. She
poured pepper into the wounds. She then
gave me a hot pot of beans to carry to the
kitchen with the bloodied hands.One of our
neighbors, a woman, saw me and took the
pot from me. She went and told everyone in
the compound. People saw my hands and
started crying.” On her part, Ronke, who is
being detained at Oke-Odo Police Station,
said: “I’m a struggling widow. I’m a trader. I
leave home in the morning and come back
at night. Whenever I return, neighbors
usually complain about Abdullahi; how he
usually goes to different places to eat. .
Sometimes, he would go with his friends to a
place called Agbele-Kale to swim. He’s just
stubborn and doesn’t listen! He’s my
brother’s son. I’ve been taking care of since
he was a baby. He was behaving like
someone who doesn’t have parents or like
someone who has no home training. .
When I returned on Saturday, neighbors said
I should warn him. On Sunday, he went out
again. Food was ready, but he was nowhere
to be seen. I was angry. I used the blade on
his two hands. I never knew it would be that
bad.
I couldn’t use cane because anytime I want
to beat him, he would run away, forcing me
to chase him. Yes, I poured pepper on the
wounds. I only wanted to make him to be a
good boy. But what happened that day was
the work of the devil. ”…… if u see d devil u
can ask even him to confirm my claims, she
