Mother of 3 Burns 8 Year Old Maid’s Hand With Charcoal For Stealing Meat
Grace Edeh, an employee of the National Examination Council, is currently being interrogated by the Niger state Child Right Protection Agency for burning the palms and thighs of her 8-year-old maid with hot charcoal.
Grace, who has three children of her own and is said to be breast-feeding one of them, said her reason for doing this was because her maid had a habit of stealing meat from the pot in her house, and from their neighbor’s house.
This all happened after an unnamed lady in the market, saw the fresh burns on the palms of the little girl, on questioning her, the little girl took her to her boss’ house. Grace was was arrested by the staff of the Minna branch of the National Human Rights Commission and later brought to the agency.
Punch reports that Mariam Kolo, the Director-General of the agency, told news men that the matter was reported to the National Human Rights Commission, who then transferred the case to her agency. She also shared that the offence contravenes Section 26 of the Child’s Right Act.
“For now, the contrite Grace Edeh may get a slap on the wrist for the offence as she has begged us for leniency and pleaded she should be saved from being docked in the court as she is a nursing mother. The agency has consequently ordered her to give medicare to her victim.” Said kolo
