This is very disheartening. A 10-year-old girl who lives with her uncle in Gonigora, Kaduna state has been left with horrific burns on her buttocks after being maltreated by her uncle’s wife. According to reports, the little girl who is out of school – was allegedly brutalized by her uncle’s wife Mrs Remi Joseph who ‘burnt her buttocks’ with fire and reportedly abandoned her without treatment last Sunday.

A well meaning neighbor who spotted the girl with her wounds – reported the case to the “Presenter of Oga landlord on Capital Sounds 90.9fm” who notified the authorities.

The woman has been arrested and charged to court.
