Happiness Nwafor, an 11-year-old child, was saved by the Anambra State Government from her abusive mother in Onitsha.
The minor was saved by the Ministry of Women and Social Welfares, which stated that it was informed of the occurrence on Wednesday, January 31, 2024, and promptly moved to send a team to the scene.
The youngster described her ordeal and claimed that Adachukwu Chukere Okafor, her madam, had punished her for groping her daughter’s body.
Happiness alleged that her madam Ada used a broken bottle, iron, knife and pistol on her in just two weeks of her stay.
Upon further investigation, it was discovered that the suspect allegedly burnt the little girl’s clothes and dropped her off stark naked with her relative known as Ifeoma Muoghalu.
While speaking at the hospital where she was first rushed to in Ogidi, the relative, Ifeoma Muoghalu claimed that the suspect boasted that nothing will happen because she’s a lawyer and knows how to work her way out.
Ifeoma equally noted that since the incident, the suspect has not been taking her calls.
She also confirmed that the minor was handed over to her Madam on the 5th of January only to be disfigured within the short period of her stay.
