Tragedy In Delta: Father Stabs Son To Death For Renting Apartment For His Mother by Savageman247(op): 2:14pm On Feb 11
In a heartbreaking incident that has left the Osubi community in Okpe Local Government Area of Delta State shocked, a man identified as Iseleto has allegedly stabbed his 23-year-old son, Miracle, to death. The gruesome act reportedly stemmed from a family dispute after Miracle rented a separate apartment for his mother in an attempt to protect her from ongoing domestic violence.

According to reports from local sources, the tension in the family had been building for some time. Miracle, described by neighbors as a caring and responsible young man, decided to intervene in his parents' troubled marriage by securing a safe space for his mother away from the alleged abuse. This move, however, enraged his father, leading to a fatal confrontation.

Eyewitness accounts suggest that Iseleto lured his son into a nearby bush under false pretenses before attacking him with a knife. The young man succumbed to his injuries on the spot, sending shockwaves through the community. Police have confirmed the incident and launched a manhunt for Iseleto, who fled the scene immediately after the crime.

"This is unimaginable," said a resident who spoke to ReportNaija on condition of anonymity. "How can a father turn on his own flesh and blood like this? The boy was just trying to do right by his mother."

Domestic violence remains a pervasive issue in many Nigerian households, and this tragedy highlights the desperate measures some family members take to escape it. Advocacy groups are calling for increased awareness and support systems to prevent such escalations.

The Delta State Police Command has urged anyone with information on Iseleto's whereabouts to come forward. Investigations are ongoing, and the community mourns the loss of a promising young life cut short by familial strife.

For the sake of your children's future; try to marry a responsible gentleman who has the strength to walk away from a fight. And don't push him into anger - but if abuse comes unprovoked, leave the union early than enduring abuse that only gets worse.

RIP to the young man.

Both couples need to be questioned about their union living together as husband and wife, it's either the woman is at fault or the husband because someone woman can push a man to act unhinged by her constant nagging but honestly speaking the father actions towards his son is bad and uncalled for.

Do you think anyone has the monopoly of violence or the right to be angry when provoked?

If you think provoking someone warrants murder to the offender, then you are one of the problems we have in the society.

Where are those girls who say they prefer a guy with a touch of violence, they should come and see the true meaning of violence. Most would not understand what it means to be with a gentle man until they're stock with a sociopath for ever. Then they will begin their regret.

The man looks like an herbalist to me 🤧 He should face jail term till his brain resets. Death would be an easy way out.

This is end time signs nothing else, there is no reason for a father to envy the son to an extend of doing to him what Cain did to Abel.

Blaming the victim as usual. Very sure you can commit this kind of crime.

When they finally catch him now, he will blame Devil.
Meanwhile, Devil may not even know the location of where Osubi is in the map.

the useless father can still sleep with the bereaved mother.
Why will a woman love a nonsense man?if the woman is not a fool that thinks with her useless feelings.
A woman will have kids for an armed robber,cultists,drug trafficker, people who must either go to prison or die young and before you know it,the kids will start suffering.
The most annoying thing is WOMEN DON'T TAKE RESPONSIBILITY
They will look for an innocent man to be a step Father for their irresponsibility

You probably did not read the post. The boy went to rent an apartment for his mother to escape the father's domestic violence and you are here pretending that the woman might be at fault. How na?

But at the beginning of the world, brother killed brother (Cain and Abel) and the world still not end.
The difference between then and now is the population and advanced technology.

To me, world end when one dies.

Trying to separate the woman from her husband is a wrong move. This woman has been with this abusers for over 23 years, the right thing to do would have been to to relocate her abroad and Japa from the man wink
On a serious note,he should have explored other options
