Police has strongly condemned such acts of violent attacks against biological parents by children saying it is a serious abomination.
“Mothers deserve all the respect from their children, no matter the circumstances,” the police spokesperson Fred Enanga said.
He added that in this very incident, the sons who are now on the run, needed to bring their concerns to the attention of their father, clan leaders, local elders, including women leaders, the church, and the Police Child and Family Protection Unit, to help prevail over their mother and her manfriend. They were instead rife with rage and anger, over their mother’s adulterous conduct.
“Their act was, therefore, pre-meditated and motivated by anger and rage. They are both wanted for two counts of Attempted Murder.
