According to eyewitnesses, when the police came to arrest her, the suspect also known as ‘Mummy’ reportedly told them to take her away as she does not care.

“She said it herself that she don’t care. Elders of the community made sure she carried her dead mother’s body on her head which she butchered into pieces.” a witness revealed. 

Spokesperson of the command, SP Odiko Macdon, who confirmed the incident on Saturday November 27, said the suspect is in custody and investigations are ongoing on the case.

Macdon said no right minded individual would slaughter her own mother in such a gruesome manner, noting that the police would have to get medical personnel to certify her state of mind before she is charged to court.

“That story is true. She butchered her mum. We are suspecting that she is not of sound mind but we do not have any medical capacity to say so. Medical personnel will have to determine if she is of sound mind or not. If not, which right minded, thinking individual will kill her own mom by butchering her?” he stated.

“As I speak, we have her in custody. We have gathered the corpse of the mom and deposited it in the mortuary. By the time we ascertain her state of mind, we will charge her accordingly. We have conducted preliminary investigations and more discreet investigations is on the way and she will be charged to court immediately after that,” he added.

  1. As you said in statement, you shouldn’t reach conclusion just like that let the medical personnel certify her wether she is in a state of mentally derailed or not.

    1. this is serious I think the same too because someone in its normal sense we not possibly do this it is either she is mentally deranged or is a spiritual issue

  2. Why is that all kinds of awful incident happening day in day out, may Almighty God have mercy on us in this nation.

  3. This is pathetic, the woman that gave birth to you butcher her without thinking twice. I don’t think she is normal.

  4. Hope she doesn’t want to use it for something else because it baffles me to see someone carried out such atrocity. Police should do thorough investigation on this matter.

  5. This story is dreadful
    It is certain this lady is not well and sound in the mind because no right sound thinking person will act inthis way and manner

  6. Nawa o things are happening in this end time o, but why should she be kept with the mum alone since she’s not of her sound mind, why didn’t the family members take her psychiatric hospital or better still chain her at a place.
