Church of Christ in Epe, Lagos has been arrested by the police for
allegedly setting her 9 year old daughter, Damilola, on fire. The
woman said her child was possessed with witchcraft and was trying to
deliver her according to God's instruction to her. She allegedly
poured kerosene on the little girl's body and set it ablaze.
Damilola is currently at the Epe General Hospital where she is being
treated for first degree burns in the emergency ward.
PM News reports that residents of her Ijebu-Ode Road, Odomola, Epe
home where the incident happened immediately informed the police of
her hideous crime. Continue...
During interrogation, she confessed to the crime but said she was
only obeying the command of God
"I saw in my vision while praying that my daughter is from the
witchcraft world. When I prayed to God over it, I received the
instruction through Holy Spirit to burn my daughter's body in order to
deliver her from the evil society."
She was immediately charged before an Igbosere magistrate court by the
police for attempted murder but the presiding magistrate, Mrs. C. J.
Momodu directed the case be transferred to a family court due to the
age of the young girl. The case comes up for hearing at the Family
Court on June 2nd
