A little boy suffered an extreme brutality from his dad, yesterday, in Okigwe, Imo State, for allegedly being too stubborn.

According to Izuogu Rowland, an eyewitness, the boy had left home without informing anyone of his whereabouts, prompting a frantic search for him.

When he was eventually found, his dad flogged him, mercilessly, before using a razor blade to cut one of his ears. He was, however, later rescued and take to a hospital for treatment.
