Sanjo who maintained that it was not an intentional act, said he got married to his wife in 2008 and they had five children.

He said; 

“It was the third child that I beat unintentionally to death.

However when interrogated, his wife said four of their five children had died, leaving them with only the last child.

She disclosed that she conspired with her husband to kill two of the children due to poverty, and they dumped one child around Osogbo Technical School area.
