Two Children Found Dead In Deep Freezer In Delta State

 The Oseni family in Owa Alero, Ika North-east local government area of Delta State, were in shock last Thursday when they discovered the corpses of two of their children, David Oseni, 6, and Shedrack, 4, inside the deep-freezer, used for their ‘iced block’ business.

According to reports by Leadership, the children were found  frozen, indicating they had been there for some time. All efforts to revive them proved abortive, as they were confirmed dead from hypothermia.

Neighbours revealed that the parents, Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Oseni , natives of Etsako, Edo State,  had locked the children indoors when going to conduct their daily businesses after they retuned from their holiday classes, only to discover the tragedy upon their return.

The father, Andrew Oseni, said he had taken the generator for repairs and, upon returning, powered it on to confirm its state, before loading it for the next day’s business.

“After 25 minutes, I lifted the top to check if the freezer was working optimally, only to behold the lifeless bodies of David and Shedrack in the freezer. I raised the alarm, calling the public to the scene. The children were immediately rushed to a private hospital where they were both confirmed dead by the doctor on duty. The police at the Divisional Office, Owa Oyibu, were contacted and investigations are on to unravel the mystery behind the tragedy,” Oseni said.

When contacted for comments, the Superintendent in charge of the Police Divisional Headquarters Owa Oyibu, SP Lawrence Ogoregbulem, said the Police have concluded their investigations, adding that “because of the parents’ uncooperative stance”, the matter had been transferred to the state headquarters for further investigations.

When contacted, sources within the station said, “the family of the victims have written to withdraw further investigations into the matter, saying that they don’t want [police]cases”.

OMG...Is it possible that the kids hid inside the fridge to play and their father put it on without checking and went back outside thinking the kids were out?
