A Nigerian couple who reside in Ogun State, Nasiru Adeyemo and Idayat Adeyemo, allegedly chopped off their daughter, Abibat’s finger and abandoned her in a bush.
Reports reveal that some residents were said to have noticed the sack and called the attention of policemen from the Owode Egba division to it. This was after two days since the sack was disposed off, with Abibat in it.
According to PUNCH, it was learnt that the suspects tied up the seven-year-old in a white sack to stop her from escaping before dumping her in the bush and leaving her there, since Friday last week.
Residents who found the sack said that upon the opening of the sack, Abibat was said to have been found unconscious and was rushed to a hospital where she was resuscitated. The police were invited.
The state police spokesperson, Abimbola Oyeyemi, who confirmed the incident, said the victim told the police that her father, Nasiru, and stepmother, Idayat, cut off her finger and threw her into the bush for money ritual.
Oyeyemi said the statement led to the arrest of the suspects, adding that they were still being interrogated by the command. He said they were arrested following the distress call from members of the public.
“The couple were arrested following a distress call from members of the public that a strange load in a sack was sighted in the Asabala area, along Papalanto/Sagamu Road.On the strength of the information, the Divisional Police Officer, Owode Egba, CSP Shehu Alao, led his men to the scene where the load, which was inside a white rice sack, was untied.Surprisingly, it was a seven-year-old girl that was inside. One of her right hand fingers had been cut off. She was tied, put inside the sack and dumped on the roadside since Friday, August 11. . .”
Following the incident and for necessary things to be done about the suspects, Oyeyemi said the state Commissioner of Police, Ahmed Iliyasu, was informed about the case.
Ahmed had ordered the transfer of the case to the Anti-kidnapping unit of the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department, Eleweran, Abeokuta, for further investigation and prosecution of the suspects.
