What could have pushed a 26- year-old man, Ikechukwu Okoro to beat his only son, three-year-old Chinedu to death? According to shocked neighbours, Ikechukwu who lives with his only son woke up by 4.30 am on September 13, 2013 to discover that the sick boy had defecated on the bed. In anger, he picked a cane and flogged him mercilessly until then boy gave up the ghost. Not knowing what to do afterwards, he picked up the dead boy and headed to a nearby clinic where he was confirmed dead.
