A 20-year-old woman, Titilayo Odedele, has told an Ebute Meta Magistrate’s Court that she strangled her two year old child, Opeyemi, because she could not afford a babysitter for him and said she had no one to help her take care of the child after she was impregnated and thrown out of her parent’s home.
Addressing the court in tears, she said,

   
Quote
“I only finished Primary six, and I did not attend secondary school before I was impregnated.On that Friday night, I attended a vigil and wanted to drop the child there and run away, but didn’t know what to do.On Saturday morning, I left the place and wrapped him up in a cloth. When I saw that nobody was with us, I put my hand on his neck and started to squeeze it till he died.”“Each time I squeezed his neck, he cried, but I just kept pressing till he died. I don’t know what entered into me.”

Nothing entered you - you CHOSE to kill your own flesh and blood. Your parents are as much to blame. They should have thought of the young childs' safety before thinking about what their neighbours would think of their daughter and her pregnancy outside wedlock.

Now another  young child has been murdered in Nigeria.

why Huh?.. are they the ones who got her pregnant?... your parents are not obliged to take full responsibility for your children.
