You Won’t Believe Why Dad Brutally Assaulted Wife & Daughter In Lagos

admin

A dad severely assaulted his 12-year-old daughter, Kafayat Kareem, for trying to intervene while he was beating her mum for using his ‘hard earned’ money to play lotto. The dad, who is now at large, allegedly got his wife’s legs fractured and inflicted several injuries on his daughter with barbed wire.

New Telegraph reports;

The incident, which happened on July 7 at Orile-Iganmu area of Lagos State, was reported at Area ‘C’ Police Command. It was learnt that members of a vigilance group, who were on night patrol at Oyingbo Market, saw the girl squirming in pains inside one of the stalls.

They rushed her to Star Clinic at Ebutte-Metta where she was receiving treatment. Kafayat told our correspondent that she ran away from home after receiving severe beating from her father.

She said: “My offence was that I tried to stop my father from beating my mother whom he accused of using his hard earned money to play lotto. It was when I was sleeping in the market that some vigilantes came and rescued me. After seeing my wounds, they took me to the hospital where I am presently receiving treatment. Despite my mother’s cry for help, none of our neighbours could come out to rescue her because they were afraid of my father. This is not the first time my father would beat my mother and I. I have lost count of the beatings. One day, out of frustration, I asked my mother to relocate my siblings and I to Ilorin so as to stay away from our father due to his incessant harassments.”

The victim’s mother is in critical condition receiving treatment at Charity Hospital, Orile-Iganmu.

One of the nurses at the hospital, who craved anonymity, said the woman sustained fracture on her two legs as a result of the beating from her husband.

The Secretary of the Vigilante Group of Nigeria said, Agbodemu Musba, called on the state Commissioner of Police, Mr Fatai Owoseni, and the state government to fish out the victim’s father to serve as deterrent to others who are assaulting their wives and children.
