The teenage nanny, Chiamaka Odo, accused of killing the 6-month-old baby in her care has revealed her motive for killing the toddler.
WITHIN NIGERIA had reported that Chiamaka was arrested for strangling her mistress’ six-month-old baby to death to please the Ogoloma cult group in Enugu State.
Chiamaka told journalists that she was initiated into the Ugoloma cult group in Agulu, Anambra state when she was in primary school.
The teenager said a classmate gave her biscuits and sweet during break and that night, she found herself attending their meeting and they welcomed her.
According to her, when it was decided that she would come to Lagos, the cult group told her that they would require blood from her but she refused to shed blood.
She began working as a nanny on January 7 in a home in Lagos and she said her cult members began appearing to her again in a dream and giving her orders.
Narrating how the baby died, she said they came to her in her dream as usual and they gave her a bowl and told her to call the baby’s name – Obiora Oso Okolo – four times. When she did, blood appeared in the bowl and the baby died after that.
Chiamaka claimed that she has been wanting to leave the cult group but can’t. If she tries to go to church, she becomes unable to walk and only gets better when church is over, she said.
