Ekiti woman nabbed for allegedly assaulting nine-year-old son with pestle

Operatives of the Amotekun Corps in Efon-Alaaye, Ekiti State, have transferred a 43-year-old woman, Damilola Clement, to the police after she allegedly struck her nine-year-old son on the head with a pestle.

Adewale Adeleye, the Head of Communications for Amotekun, disclosed this in a statement on Tuesday, noting that the incident occurred at the suspect’s residence in Efon-Alaaye.

Clement, who hails from Akure in Ondo State, was said to have attacked her son following a disagreement over an undisclosed matter.

Reports indicate that she admitted to the act, claiming it was a form of punishment for the child’s repeated misconduct.

Authorities have since handed her over to the Efon-Ekiti Police Division for further investigation, while the injured child is receiving medical care at an undisclosed hospital in the area.
