This mishap happened in Asaba, Delta state, Nigeria on Saturday.

Mr Macaulay Onitcha is the father of the above baby. The 25-year-old labourer who claimed he is unhappy with his wife after she allegedly refused to sleep with him committed this ungodly act.

The 4-month-old baby girl named Edna Macaulay was buried in a shallow grave dug by her own father on Saturday at Ekurudu Street Kokori.

Fortunately for little Edna, a good Samaritan who witnessed Edna’s father burying her rescued the girl.

Mr Saturday Ekama who reported the man to the police said he rescued the baby girl while her father was marching the shallow grave.

The good samaritan suffered Machete cuts from the baby’s father as he was trying to rescue the baby girl.

Below is a confirmation statement from Delta State police spokesman, Mr Muk:

“When the child was exhumed alive, she had neck injury. Currently, she is undergoing treatment at that Saint Francis Hospital, Okapra Inland while the suspect is currently assisting the State Criminal Investigation

Department, SCID, Asaba in their investigations,”

Oh God have mercy. Imagine a father burying his own blood baby.

A 32-year old Nigerian pastor, Kehinde Boluwaji, has landed himself in trouble for allegedly dipping his fingers and pouring salt inside a woman’s private part under the false pretence of carrying out deliverance on her.

Boluwaji, who hails from Ondo State, Southwest Nigeria, reportedly lied to the victim, 22-year old Busola Adebayo that she was possessed of a strange spirit that will cause her untimely death if she was not delivered.

He also told Busola that the bad dreams she always had will not allow her to get a husband and when she eventually gets married, she will not get pregnant and have children.

He told her the deliverance will start from her private part to other parts of her body.

Boluwaji then invited and locked her in his one room apartment at 7, Arounmalase street, Ijeshatedo, Lagos for ‘prayer and deliverance’.

According to the victim, “he ordered me to remove my dress and pant and sit on a floor and spread my legs wide open while he was busy muttering and pretending he was praying.

“He brought out a white handkerchief and salt and first ordered me to pour it inside my private part and later joined me in doing so. He started fingering me, pretending that he was praying. He used the handkerchief and cleaned it and took it away.”

On why she did not raise an alarm, Busola said she was overwhelmed by the prophecy he told her. She was later rescued by the victim’s friend who saw her when she entered the pastor’s room and raised an alarm.
This forced the pastor to open the door and by then she was still nude.

The neighbours descended on the pastor and battered him before the police at Ijeshatedo division rescued and took him to the station.

He was charged to a Magistrate’s Court on a two-count charge of conduct likely to cause the breach of public peace contrary to Sections 166 and 348 of the Criminal Code Laws of Lagos State of Nigeria, 2011.

Part of the charge reads: “That you pastor Kehinde Boluwaji on the same date, time and place did conduct yourself in a manner likely to cause breach of public peace by asking the victim to use salt to wash her private part.”

He pleaded not guilty.

The trial magistrate, D. T. Olatokun granted him bail in the sum of N50,000 with two sureties in like sum. He was remanded in prison custody because nobody showed up to perfect his bail.

The matter was adjourned till 11 Febuary, 2012.
