Mother of two allegedly poisoned by mother-in-law in Ilorin
One Yetunde Balogun has died after she was allegedly poisoned by her mother-in-law in Ilorin.
According to sources, Balogun died after her husband’s mother allegedly poisoned her using snipper (dichlorovinyl dimethyl phosphate)
A former course mate, Oyeronke Oluwakemi G-Fadele noted that Balogun was a graduate of Linguistics from the University of Ilorin.
It was gathered that the incident took place at Ara Oje Compound, Ilorin, Kwara State.
However, the course mate of the deceased made some revelations that suggested what led to the death of Balogun.
The course mate said the deceased has two beautiful daughters with her husband.
She wrote:
A course mate of mine from the University died yesterday and it’s alleged that she was poisoned by her mother-in-law.
“Her name is Balogun Yetunde and she was a mother of two beautiful girls.

“It is said that her husband is a Muslim from Ilorin and that her in-laws had never been cool with her or the fact that she was involved with their son.
“They only had an introduction.
“Yetunde until her demise stayed in Ilorin while her husband was shuttling Abuja and Ilorin.
“Yetunde had on several occasions left their home to go back to her parents or relatives due to some marital issues of which she had spoken to some of our course mates and other friends about, unknown to her husband and his people.
“Yetunde is dead and according to reports, she was poisoned. How? Why? All these we are still trying to ascertain as the narrative seems to be different from the husband’s side.
“The husband never put a call through to her family that their child was dead.
“It was her cousin who came bearing an item which Yetunde had requested from home that got to know and alerted the family.
“A twist to this narrative says she took snipper, meanwhile reports say her children are also in the hospital due to the fact that they also shared in the food their mother ate.
“We want justice for Yetunde as we her course mates are just getting the whole pieces of this puzzle together.
“Up until this moment, no family member of her husband’s has formally paid Yetunde’s family a visit and access had been denied her older sister to her corpse.”

200,000 repentant terrorists surrender, drop arms in North East – CDS
The Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Musa, has disclosed that about 200,000 repentant terrorists have so far dropped their arms and surrendered to troops in the North East, noting that the twin strategy of kinetic and non-kinetic operations was responsible for this achievement.
The CDS made this known at the Security and Justice Symposium organised by the Office of the National Security Adviser (ONSA) in collaboration with the British High Commission, which began at the National Counterterrorism Centre in Abuja on Tuesday.
He disclosed that the theme of the symposium, ”Securing Peace, Ensuring Justice, Protection, Conduct, and Accountability,” speaks volumes about the deluge of security challenges the armed forces and security agencies are facing.
His words, “All the challenges we are facing today have to do with fairness, equity, justice, and accountability.
“There will not be peace without justice, equity, fairness, and accountability. In our operations, we are conducting both kinetic and non-kinetic strategies, which have to a large extent yielded significant successes, and we want to particularly thank the National Security Adviser for his great support in this regard.
“Nigeria is going through so many challenges, and we feel we’re able to address this, and everybody has a sense of belonging. A lot of the security challenges we are having, we are sure, will go down. I want to thank the National Security Advisor for all the support he’s given us, both the kinetic and the non-kinetic.
“We have said it; the kinetic aspect is just less than 30%. The non-kinetic has a lot to play. The non-kinetic, because when you have democracy, people must have the evidence of democracy. As long as it tells people to sleep well and be peaceful, and they are hungry, their children cannot eat, and all this creates more problems.
