Nigerian man who stabbed his mother to death in the UK sentenced to Life imprisonment

Emmanuel Kalejaiye, the 21 year old
Nigerian man who stabbed his own
mother, 41 year old Tolu Kalejaiye,
to death at their home in the UK has
been sentenced to life imprisonment.
Emmanuel who has been diagnosed
with a mental ailment, stabbed his
mother 40 times in the head, face,
neck, upper limbs & hands during a
frenzied knife attack in Sept2013.
His mum until her death was an
accountant with the Camden Council
in England. When interrogated,
Emmanuel admitted to killing his
mother.
“I admit killing my mother by
stabbing her. I did this because she
subjected me to a lifetime of physical
and mental abuse. She used the Bible
to rationalize what she did to me. I
believe she manipulated and
brainwashed me. I have been very
depressed for a long time. I have tried
to overcome it but I couldn’t take it
anymore”.
A UK court had in April 2014 found
Emmanuel guilty of manslaughter
and not murder due to his mental
ailment. At a resumed hearing of the
case on Thursday June 18th, a
telephone message she sent with her
phone to her boyfriend, Leo
Shogunle, when she was being
attacked by her son was played.
In the audio, she was heard calling
on her son to stop stabbing her until
the telephone became chillingly
quiet. Her boyfriend raced to the
house to find her in the pool of her
own blood.
Medical experts told the court that
Emmanuel has been suffering from
Chronic depression.
