Landlord Kills Tenant's 3-Month-Old Baby During A Fight In Bayelsa (Photos, Video)

The Bayelsa State Police Command has arrested a 35-year-old landlord, Oyeinmiebi Selekowei for the murder of his tenant’s 3-month-old baby during a brawl at Amassoma community in Southern Ijaw Local Government Area of the state, IgbereTV reports.

The Bayelsa State Government through its Gender Response Initiative Team (GRIT) has indicated its readiness to support the legal processes that will lead to the prosecution of the landlord.

According to reports, Selekowei had on September 13 allegedly killed the three-month-old baby of his tenant, Oscar Pere, because the latter tried to rescue a woman believed to be the landlord’s mother from assault at the hands of her son.

The suspect who got angry with the intervention of Pere, threatened to deal with him and kill his child.

Pere, in a complaint lodged with GRIT, stated that the suspect transferred aggression on him by holding his child upside down and hitting the back of the child’s head against the door until the baby died.

Findings showed that several relatives of the suspect had mounted pressure on the father of the deceased to settle the matter amicably.

Pere, a youth pastor with the Redeemed Christian of Church of God (RCCG), was quoted to have told GRIT officials that he did not want to be involved in any case against his child’s killer.

"I told you to let God fight because vengeance belongs to God. I will not want to offend my God by doing things outside his will,’ Pere reportedly said in his message.

However, officials of GRIT are preparing to press charges.

GRIT State Chairman Mrs Dise Sheila Ogbise, speaking on the issue on Wednesday, described the act of the suspect as barbaric and a criminal act against the state.

"The Prosperity Government of Governor Douye Diri has declared zero tolerance to all forms of violence especially gender-based violence and this case will not be an exception" she said.

GRIT Head of the Legal Mrs Debra Pamosoo said the complaint lodged at the GRIT secretariat by the father of the late child is criminal in nature and if the alleged offender is found guilty by a competent court of law, the punishment will be a death sentence.

"See Section 319 Criminal Code Of Bayelsa State. It suffices to also say that the alleged offence by the landlord is a breach of the constitutional fundamental right to life of the three months old baby,’ Pamosoo said.

Further checks showed that the suspect is in the custody of the State Criminal Intelligence Department (SCID) of the State Command which is investigating a case of murder against him.

Spokesman of the State Police Command, Asinim Butswat, confirmed that the accused landlord is still in the custody of the SCID and the legal department is preparing to charge him to court.

Bayelsa Opu Egberi shared a photo and video of the baby and the incident on Facebook with the caption;

The World is coming to an end!"

It's good to obey and worship God but don't be foolish as well because God will not like the fact that you were foolish for not seeking justice over case of a murderer.He should be arrested and made to face the law.

See beautiful baby.... wasted by a nonchalant landlord....



If it were me .. .before the police arrive.... the landlord must have smelled hellfire and return back...

Chai

Wahala no dey finish.

The father must be a compound fool.
.
First he intervened in a fight that is not his business, second he couldn't protect his 3 month baby and exposed him to violent brawl, third he wouldn't press charges to make the guy suffer for what he did? What kind of father is that? Some people don't deserve to have a baby
Where is the mother? Is she also as foolish as the father.

This world is full of wicked animals in husman form.

What a painful way to die. Rip innocent baby.

What a painful way for an innocent child to die

Nawa o

This and many more are why I will never indulge in a brawl or get into a fight with anyone.. I wouldn't mind kneeling down ,rolling myself in the mud just to beg you if I can't bolt away from the scene immediately.

Set his house on fire and take the landlordz life!

Anything fight,count me out

I saw one related thread to this one some weeks ago on this forum

but the Op said the landlord killed the baby because of house rent.

i knew they was something wrong about that thread

This news don grace front page 2days ago nah. Abi na another version

HM

God have Mercy.

Why una no show the picture of the devilish landlord?

Cursed tribe

This is why Governors need to be signing death warrant.
This wicked landlord's case should not be dragged, he should be sentenced to death and be killed within a week.
How on Earth can somebody held a baby and be slamming his head on a door.
The stupid father says he lives the fight to God.


I am so enraged!!

Bayelsa just dey enter news for the wrong reason lately

Jungle justice should have been unleashed on that bastard. He did it intentional

Oh not again, what an unfortunate way to die

The Lord was responsible for the pregnancy, so he only used d fight to actualise his dream of eliminating d infant, since d tenant wife refused aborting d baby!

Youre a dead meat.

Too bad

People are just evil
