The heart of man is filled with wickedness. When you think you have seen it all, another shocking incident pops up.
A young girl is currently going through so much pain at the moment after a woman simply identified as Zainab, bathed her daughter with hot water after she reportedly refused to run an errand for her.
After the incident, it was learnt that the suspect who was residing at Oke Oniti area of Osogbo, Osun State, has been arrested and detained by the Osun State Command of Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps.
The NSCDC spokesperson for the Command, Daniel Adigun, during an interview on Tuesday confirmed the arrest of the suspect.
He said, “The woman was cooking when the incident happened. She injured the victim with hot water obviously out of frustration. We are proceeding with our investigation.”
Speaking on the incident that led to the arrest of the suspect, a neighbour to the housewife, who pleaded anonymity, said Zainab had sent her daughter to grind pepper, while the girl refused.
“In anger, the woman attacked the girl with hot water and inflicted injury on her. Immediately after the incident happened, a woman, who has a shop nearby, rushed inside the house and dragged the suspect out. The woman and another neighbour, a man beat her up.
“The neighbours also took the victim to the hospital and paid the bill. The woman had the girl in her first marriage before she got married to her present husband. On the day she poured hot water on the girl, the victim lost the key to their apartment, but she later found it. But the mother insisted on beating her and the girl was scared to go near the house.
“It was after that incident that the mother told her to grind pepper, but the girl did not run the errand. She thought that the mother wanted to lure her in and punish her. The mother later seized the girl and poured hot water on her, causing her bodily injury,” the neighbour said.
This is a pure art of wickedness…we hope she gets the punishment she so deserve. deserve
