Rabiu Yusuf, a 43-year-old man from Bauchi state murdered his son, Aliyu Rabiu, aged 10, because, according to him, the boy was stubborn.
So what was this stubbornness the boy displayed that was worthy of death?
Yusuf divorced the mother of the boy and married a second wife. “My son Aliyu followed his mother to her new home, and I was not in support of the arrangement. I called Aliyu several times to come back home because I want him to be in my custody as his father, but he refused. So I went to the mother’s home with annoyance and brought him back home,” he said.
Not satisfied with having brought the boy back home, Yusuf chained him and locked him up inside the room so the boy would not escape to his mother. For 10 days, the boy was locked up and chained. He later fell sick and was taken to Rimi Clinic in Bauchi where he died.
Yusuf has confessed to killing his son even though he said he did not believe that the boy would die as a result of the punishment.
He was paraded at the police headquarters in Bauchi, alongside other suspects.
Bauchi State command Police Public Relation Officer , DSP Haruna Mohammed, confirmed that Yusuf Rabiu conspired with one Ismail Idris and maltreated and killed his 10 years old son.
He said the case is under investigation after which suspects will be charged to Court for prosecution.
