Robbers smash head of seven-day-old baby parents prayed 10 years to have

A couple has been plunged into mourning following the murder of their seven-day-old son by suspected armed robbers in the Alagbado area of Lagos State.
The couple were said to have been trying to have a baby for over 10 years before God finally answered their prayers and blessed them with the baby.
The couple, said to be very rich, decided to have a big christening ceremony party.
Few hours after the party, the five gunmen stormed into their home, angrily flung the baby against a wall and bolted. The mother of the child was said to have fainted.
The confession of the incident was later made by a member of the robbery gang identified as Seun Waheed, after Special Anti-Robbery Squad officers and men had an encounter with them at the Iyano-Ipaja area of the state, weeks after they killed the baby.
Waheed claimed to have been the person who actually flung the baby against the wall, explaining that the baby’s mother was shaking too much while trying to hand over jewelry and money to them, thus wasting the gang’s valuable time.
According to Waheed, he and his gang members attended the naming ceremony uninvited.
They had eaten and wined until nightfall.
It was at the party that the Dee-Jay mentioned that the grand party was because the couple had been searching for baby for almost 10 years.
After the gang left the party, they regrouped and went back to the home of the couple.
They were able to gain entrance into the compound by telling the security guards that they had come to collect the canopies they rented out to the couple.
Immediately the guards opened the gate, they were confronted with five men armed to the teeth.
The gang was said to have gone into the master bedroom first, where they robbed the husband and then ordered the man to take them to his wife’s room.
The woman was said to have already brought out her jewelry and money to hand over to them, but she was shaking too much in fright.
Angry Waheed picked the sleeping baby and flung him against the wall.
He told policemen that he believed his action was mostly due to the fact that he was already drunk.
After the gang’s confrontation with policemen at Iyana-Ipaja area, three among the gang members were arrested, while police are still hunting for fleeing two.
