"Why I Had To Cut My Father's Throat!" Redeemer University Student Explained

His name is Tolani Ajayi, he is 21 year old, he is a Redeemer University student and he lives in Redemption Camp with his father who he hacked to death on Tuesday July 3rd. Now he explained why he had to kill his father.

"There is no way Nigerians can help me. I am going to face my judgement. I am meant to pay for what I have done. It is not as if I am ready, it is something that is inevitable - something that is going to happen; I am just waiting for it. The incident happened around 1 a.m. when the church would have been sleeping by then. It was...
anger that led me to this. There was an argument between us and I stood up to him. He beat me with a stick and bit me with his teeth repeatedly. Just the two of us were at home; my mother was in Abuja," he explained. "I tried to defend myself, then he bit me on my shoulder and I got angry. I used normal small kitchen knife then I used a cutlass to attack him. I regret the action," He continued. "My mother is still grieving. I have sent some people to talk to her that I am sorry. I want to give her time. I have talked to my sister. I have asked for forgiveness," he said. "My father came for a programme; then, my school was on break so I went to meet him. We were meant to go back to Abuja together then the incident happened and I am here," he said.
Premium Times reports that Tolani was into drugs and had been caught twice by the authorities of Redeemer University. The school had set up a panel to question him on the alleged drug offence before he killed his father.
When asked if he was under the influence of any drugs when he attacked his father, Tolani admitted taking drugs but denied he was on drugs on the day of the murder, saying it was more spiritual.
He also said it was not planned. He said his father was the one that first went to the kitchen to get a wooden spoon which he used to hit him. Tolani then went into the kitchen, took a knife and cutlass and attacked his father.
Anger and Drug, that was what led him to kill his own father! I can't begin to imagine what his mother and siblings are feeling right now. Only God can console them.

I said it, this guy is high on something. He said he's not on drug when he killed his father. that was a lie. Only drug can make you go that far.

If this is the reason why everyone should kill his father then one will have a father in this life.

Its the drug and if he doesn't want to face death penalty he should stop saying he's not on drug.

May God have mercy on his soul. You killed your father and you still have mouth to talk. May God have mercy on him.

Its obvious he and his father have never been in good terms. It seems they always disagree a lot. That's why?

that's what anger can do to you. In that moment when you're angry you will be blinded to your fault and that everything u r doing is not ur fault. Its when u finish the whole thing that ur eyes will open and will clear
