Published by

One Andrew Koku is now in police net for allegedly killing his six months old daughter, Precious Koku, on Christmas eve, in Obada area, of Ogun State.

He was arrested by police detectives attached to Adigbe Divisional Police Station, following a complaint by his wife, Omowunmi Teleda.

The mother of the dead baby was said to have gone out on a visit to her child she had for her ex-husband and came back to meet her baby dead.

Teleda, according to a statement by the State Police Public Relations Officer, Abimbola Oyeyemi, was said to have confessed to the crime

The suspect claimed that he intentionally killed the baby because he was suspecting his wife of wanting to return to her ex-husband.

The statement said, “The suspect confessed to the crime but claimed to be suspecting that his wife wanted to leave him for her ex-husband and that if that should happen, he will not be able to take care of the baby and that was the reason why he decided to eliminate the child.”

The Commissioner of Police CP Ahmed Iliyasu has directed that the case is transferred to Homicide Section of the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department for proper investigation and prosecution of the suspect.
