A young girl identified as Onyinye and her mother have reportedly beaten her father to death.
The incident occurred along Urhobo Road in Sapele Local Government Area of Delta State after the man questioned her daughter’s second pregnancy out of wedlock.
According to the report, the deceased, a commercial tricycle operator, was reprimanding his daughter for the second pregnancy when she became angry and pounced on, beating him to stupor.
Onyinye’s mother was said to have quickly locked the door, joining her daughter in assaulting the husband until he fell and hit his head on the ground.
He was reported to have died instantly, before neighbors could intervene and force the door open.
Sources in the area said residents raised an alarm, inviting the police, who arrested both the mother and daughter.
When contacted, the Delta State Police Public Relations Officer, SP Bright Edafe, claimed that the matter had not been reported.
