Not the killing, but the obvious anger at the birth of a female child- repetitively. I stayed in the SW for years, I never heard people ask “wetin she born?” Neighbors gave birth and everyone was happy! They shared sugar and biscuit for us, we chop.

The day I entered bus and landed in the SE, that was when I started hearing that nonsense question. The sex of the child will determine how happy they will be for you. Very anyhow people.

Demonic FOOLISH UNWISE Wicked FATHER !

The Woman only delivered what you God putz in Her..

It's totally Foolish for we Men to blame our ladies for things like dis!

Opeyemi4real:
Firstly, the man should be smashed too, may with a moving train.

Secondly, stop blaming men for the sex of a baby. A man will always release the two chromosomes while the woman body will decide which one to pick. Bottom line, neither the man nor the woman is to be blamed.

ladyGKilaBCrueD:
Osus and their obsession for male children though...

Probz:


But the point is the outcome’s purely biologically determined. It’s not within the female or male’s conscious control.

SafariBoy:
Chai..this one weak me oo! Some people dey find even one whether na male or female and all what this man has to do was to murder someone he can't create himself. Mr man, you are a disgrace to the entire human race and i pray you face the consequences of your wicked and inhumane actions!!

Dmanky:


What are you saying? he's guilty already.

He deserve maximum jail term!!!

bigfrancis21:


Biologically, men donate the sperm (in equal numbers), however the containing environment of the female is what makes the final decision.

The man doesn’t determine which chromosome fertilizes. The woman’s body decides which one is successful.

Your honor, he acted out of shock. Meaning he did not think before doing it.
He trusted her words 100percent. It's a natural instinct for anyone to be shocked. As the baby was in his hands and shock is a reflex action, he could have saved the baby otherwise. How could a sane human being kill his own child?
Your honor this would have happened to anyone else, if the person you trust the most lies to you, your natural instinct will be stark shock.
I stand to say that if the baby was not in his hand at the moment of the shock, the baby will still be alive as my client has no original intention to end the life of his child even if the child was female. Thank you Your honor.

koonbey:


Shock... as a defence for murder? Okay.

eyinjuege:


That's a clear case of murder, my dear.
Cold blooded murder.
Hopefully he gets capital punishment.
Death should be reserved for those who seriously harm or kill children. Very painful death
You cannot just get up and kill people because your expectations were not met.
Many people voted for change, and many expectations remain unmet. Normal humans haven't taken up arms to go and start killing

Akube1z:
Women just like decieving men. Right from Adam and eve..
And female child is also good . Some men just prefer male child to female child.

Kestolove:
male child day are curse

shekauvsbuhari:
You are right with the way you look at it but going by legal precedence he will easily get away with manslaughter. His wife actions made it so.

Ryan03:
you must be stupid to think they are safe with an insane father. He could kill a newborn, what stops him from killing the rest? Poverty will not allow you think

loooozeem:
This is serious
Am not that surprise cos is an Igbo man.
I prefer almajiris than igbo
