How An Angry Father Assaulted His Son Who Went Missing Will Shock You… See Details
In Lagos, a father identified as Adeyemi Adekunle, has been arrested for allegedly assaulting his 8-year-old son after the young boy went missing from their home in the Dopemu area of the state for two days.
The boy, whose name was not disclosed by the police, had gone missing on Saturday from their apartment on Kolawole Street, Dopemu and Adekunle, his dad went to the police station on Sunday to report a case of missing person, Punch gathered.
Fortunately, the victim was, however, seen on Monday wandering in the area, after which the father was informed. Upon setting his eyes on the boy, Adekunle, who had reportedly divorced the victim’s mother and remarried, allegedly beat up his son, and broke his two arms, and then locked him up alongside 3 of his siblings.
According to a police source:
”The man had confessed in his statement that he was guilty of beating his son, and the four other children, whom his first wife has for him. The boy was reported to us by the dad as missing on Saturday.
However, when the boy was found on Monday, the father got angry, thinking that the victim played a prank on him and descended heavily on him. The dad caused serious fracture to the boy’s arms in the process.
We also found four other children locked up in the man’s house when we got there. It was the suspect’s landlord that came to report the beating.”
Meanwhile, the case had been transferred to the gender unit of the state command in Ikeja for further investigation.
The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, SP Dolapo Badmos, confirmed the arrest.
”The father is alleged to have consistently assaulted his children after he divorced his first wife who is their mother. The gender unit is investigating the matter after which the suspect will be charged to court.
The child with the fractured hands is in the hospital, while the command is liaising with the Lagos State Government to place the children in shelters until we see their mother. If the mother is able to take good care of them, the police will release the children to her.”
A resident of the area said the victim had been taken to a hospital, where he was recuperating.

Some people don’t deserve to be parents. And I am sure this same man would have prevented his wife from taking their kids with her after the divorce. Now see he can’t care for them properly and assaulting one for going missing mtschew. Who does that?
He will not know the pains of given birth to a child ,cos his own is to jump in and come down, hard it be that the head of that baby passed true him, in fact, he wouldn’t have done that. Go and check he now ,is poverty, his not doing anything only to carry women.. If only our country will help women in cases like this like order country , you cater for your kids.
He must be hungry to have done this as they say; a hungry man is an angry man
Idiotic sperm donors calling themselves dads.

Why won’t the poor boy run away from his incessant beatings. I wonder how their mother is able to sleep at night wherever she is because I can’t imagine leaving my kids in the custody of a man worst still with a step mum
