Son slaughters, buries his mother in Bayelsa



Like a scene in a horror movie, a 67-year old mother, Mrs. Rose Jonny, was on Sunday butchered by her 24-year old son identified as Godsgift.



Instead of bringing good tidings to her mother, Godsgift sent the woman that gave birth and raised him to the world beyond in a horrific manner.

The indigenes of Oloibiri in Ogbia local government area of Bayelsa State, were thrown into mourning when they discovered that the son had not only killed the mother, but also buried her in a shallow grave.

Our source gathered that the mother of four was killed in her sleep with a machete by a son she loved so much.

Sources from the community said, after slaughtering his mother, Godsgift dragged her out through the window and secretly threw her body into a shallow grave.

The incident reportedly occurred at about 9.30pm on Sunday night.

There was confusion in the land as the elders held many meetings to discuss the matter.

The chiefs were said to have insisted that the gruesome murder had desecrated their land and that the land must be cleansed through prayers.

The source who craved anonymity said: “The boy, who is suspected to be disturbed and deranged, had out of anger told the mother that she would not see the next day.

“At about 8.30pm, he crept into the mother’s room and butchered her in her sleep.

“He took her bloodied body out of the room through the window and dragged her to the back of the house. He dug a shallow grave and dumped her body. He later covered it with sand.

“The next morning, people noticed that the woman’s door had remained locked. They knocked on her door many times but she did not answer.

“Another son of the woman was summoned by the neighbours and they forced the door open. The whole room was soaked with blood and they noticed signs of big struggle.

“The neighbours and the children of the deceased traced the bloodline created by the movement of the body through the window and saw the shallow grave and the body of the woman.”

A member of the family identified as Godwin refused to speak on the matter and insisted that they preferred keeping the incident within the family.
