Father Kills Wife, Son, Hangs himself in Ikorodu

A commercial motorcyclist popularly known as Okada raider, Enife Omomo has allegedly killed his wife, Faith Omomo and their last child (name withheld) before hanging himself at No.12, Obafemi Eruja Street, off Mustapha Asha Street in the Aga area of Ikorodu, Lagos, West Africa.

BlackBox Nigeria correspondent who was at the scene of the event gathered that the unfortunate incident happened in the cause of the night today, May 24, 2019.
While nobody is sure what actually happened or how it transpired, neighbours claim the couple sat outside the compound till around 11pm last night and entered the house.
The couple’s first child, Efe who spoke with BlackBox Nigeria said she woke up this morning around 7am and discovered the three were dead. Only her immediate younger brother was awake while her parents and youngest brother were dead. She said she subsequently took her brother to the bathroom, showered then alerted neighbours who came rushing to their single room bungalow otherwise known as ‘face me I face you’.
BlackBox Nigeria further gathered that neighbours have alerted the police but as at the time of filing this report, they were yet to turn up.
BlackBox Nigeria correspondent who however entered the dingy room saw the father hanging lifeless from a rope tied to the ceiling fan while the wife was lying lifeless on the floor. The dead child was on the double seater chair in their one room apartment.
Neighbours claim the man might have died as a result of depression because the couple have been living in near penury despite the late Enife being an Okada rider.
The children it was further gathered have at home for over six months making it about two terms since they last attended school because the parents couldn’t afford the fees.
