People should learn to control their anger,no matter the level of provocation.Or how else can this case be described?
A woman, Mrs. Ita Okokon, aka, Eka
Isaac, at Atai Obio Offot, Uyo Local Government Area, Akwa Ibom State,
has killed her 15-year-old son, Isaac Okokon, after a minor
disagreement.
Isaac, an SSS II pupil of Offot Ukwa
Secondary School, Obiofot, Uyo, was said to have died on Friday
following a machete injury his mother inflicted on him.
A neighbour, Miss Ekaette Effiong, told PUNCH Metro that when the mother beat Isaac, he retaliated instead of running away as a sign of respect.
Effiong added that Isaac hit his mother so hard that the woman 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.
Effiong stated that neighbours, friends, relatives, and the mother rushed Isaac to a hospital where he died.
The mother was said to have fled Atai Obio Offot when she discovered that Isaac had died.
