“The Success Story of Our
Rescue of An Abused 10-Year-Old Child. A few days ago I received information
that this girl was trafficked and abused by her madam’s husband. He beat and
severely injured her because she wet her bed.
“She is only 10 years old. The
challenge was in identifying the incident location and the parties involved in
the abuse.
“For the last few days I have
been working with the fantastic #NPF on this issue. I am glad to say that
through my work with the police the location was established, the abusive man
identified and he is now in police custody.
“Pure Evil. Sometimes sharing
a video such as this is not enough. You have to act.
“We scream domestic
violence but see what a woman and her husband can do to a ten-year-old child
because she peed on the bed. This is not their child. She was trafficked from
Enugu State to Abuja as a house slave. At ten years of age. By a Christian
family.
“I have made a formal
complaint and the Nigeria Police Force are handling the case. They
are searching for this child.
“If you know of her
whereabouts let me know. The husband and wife who did this are right now on the
run, but they will be caught.
