Woman kills son with machete over minor disagreement

A Nigerian woman has killed her 15-year-old son, Isaac Okokon, after a minor disagreement.

According to punchng.com, Ita Okokon and her son Isaac had an argument which ended in a physical fight.

A neighbour said that when the mother beat Isaac, he retaliated instead of running away, which she saw as a sign of disrespect.

The neighbour added that Isaac hit his mother so hard that she fell to the ground.

“When Isaac hit his mother that hard, the woman felt humiliated. When she got up, she went inside the house and brought out the machete. She chased her son with the machete, but when she could not get him, she threw the machete at him, which cut through his body,” she said.
