Edima, who is now six months pregnant with her own child, said she could not bear the thought of raising her baby alongside her husband’s sons. She admitted that she has spent many sleepless nights thinking about how to remove the boys from her home so that her unborn child would not have to share their father’s love, attention, and wealth. This shocking confession was posted online on 25 September 2025, and since then, it has spread quickly on social media, leaving many Nigerians in shock and anger.
Edima is originally from Akwa Ibom State, while her husband is from Mbaise in Imo State. She described her husband as the man of her dreams. In her words, he is tall, handsome, educated, and very successful. He provides well for the family and treats her with kindness and love. She explained that she fell in love with him quickly. As an Akwa Ibom woman, she also took pride in her beauty and her skills in the kitchen. She said her husband could not resist her charm, and not long after they met, he proposed to her. She accepted without hesitation.
However, before they married, she already had strong feelings against single fathers. According to her, she always told herself that she could never marry a man who already had children from another woman. She feared that such children would always come first and that the man’s love and attention would be divided. Despite these feelings, she married him. Her husband, before the wedding, had begged her to accept his three sons and to treat them as her own. He promised her that he would love any children they had together equally. Edima agreed outwardly, but in her heart, she admitted that hatred was already growing.
Their wedding was beautiful, with music, dancing, and joy. But after the celebrations, reality settled in. Edima said the hatred for her stepchildren became stronger. She recalled moments when her husband would come home from work and first ask about his sons before turning to her. She felt jealous when he gave the boys attention, even though he still showed her affection. Now that she is six months pregnant, she said she feels worse. She wants her husband’s love and attention to be given only to her and her unborn baby. She cannot stand the thought of her child sharing space, gifts, or inheritance with her husband’s other children.
In her confession, Edima revealed that she bought poison twice. The first time, she planned to mix it into the children’s food during dinner. She had already prepared the meal when her husband returned home earlier than expected. She said he noticed something was strange and made her throw away the food. They ended up eating something else. The second time, she bought poison again and kept it hidden, waiting for the right time. She admitted that she still dreams of a life where the boys are no longer alive, and her child grows up as the only heir.
Edima also confessed that she often mistreats the boys when her husband is not around. She sometimes locks them outside in the rain until their father returns home. She pretends to care for them in his presence, but when alone, she treats them harshly. She wrote that she feels angry each time she sees them laughing, playing, or running to their father for comfort. She wants all those moments to belong to her and her baby alone.
She ended her long post with bold words, saying “I am Mirach Amba, the best of me and the best of my kind.” She shared her confession openly, almost as if daring people to judge her. The post, which was made on her Facebook page with over 26,000 followers, immediately went viral. By 27 September 2025, it had already been shared more than 5,000 times, with thousands of comments pouring in.
Many Nigerians reacted with anger, shock, and sadness. Some called her post a cry for help, while others condemned her for even thinking of killing innocent children. Some women admitted quietly in the comments that they understood her struggles in blended families but said she had gone too far with her thoughts of poison. Many men shared their disappointment and warned other fathers to be careful when remarrying after losing a wife. Child rights activists expressed concern and said they would keep a close watch in case any harm came to the children.
Within a short time, Nigerian news websites such as Within Nigeria and Legit.ng picked up the story, turning her confession into national headlines. Writers on other platforms linked her confession to a wider problem of stepfamily tensions in Nigeria and across Africa. Some recalled past cases where jealousy led to real tragedies inside homes. At the moment, no police action has been taken, since her confession is still just words online. But many are calling for closer monitoring to ensure the children are safe.
Throughout her confession, Edima never mentioned her husband’s name. She only described him as a successful man from Mbaise who loves his children deeply. From her words, he seems unaware of the depth of her hatred. She admitted that she hides her feelings well in his presence, pretending to care for the boys while secretly plotting against them.
The confession has opened discussions about stepfamilies, jealousy, and hidden struggles in homes. Many Nigerians are asking how many more women or men may be harbouring such dangerous thoughts without speaking out. For now, Edima’s story remains one of the most disturbing confessions to appear on Nigerian social media in recent times. Her words have shaken people, raising fears not only for the three innocent boys but also for the unborn baby growing inside her.
