Ondo State Police Command stated on Saturday that an investigation into the murder of a mother and her infant inside their room in Owo, the headquarters of Ondo State’s Owo Local Government Area, has begun.
The 29-year-old lady, known as Tawa, and her husband were discovered unconscious in the room on Friday, while their five-month-old baby was already dead.
The three was believed to have gone to bed in good health on Thursday evening.
According to a source, the pair purchased a new generator a few days before the event and turned it on Thursday evening before going to bed, raising the possibility that the incident was caused by the generator’s fume.
The family was met in critical condition on Friday, according to the source. Since the baby was already dead, the couple was found unconscious and rushed to the Federal Medical Centre in Owo, where the wife died and medics battled to save the husband’s life.
