A Lagos-based couple couple, Eucharia Chukwuma and Jerry Oko-Oboh residing in
Joshua street, Ajangbadi have been arrested for stabbing 10
year old Chidinma pictured above in her private part over allegations that she
fiddled with the private part of their 3 year old daughter, Peace on April 6th.
According to Punch, on the day of the incident, the 10 year
and the 3 year old, who are neighbours, went out to play. After the couple's
daughter returned home from playing with Chidinma, she complained to her
parents that Chidinma had fiddled with her private part.
Angered by the
allegation, the girl's mother Eucharia went to Chidinma's house and met with
Chidinma's mother, Ofia.
She asked to see Chidinma and when she saw her, she told the
little girl to follow her. On getting to the couple's house, Chidinma denied
the allegation and was beaten up and stabbed with a broken bottle and smeared
it with pepper. Chidinma's mother, hearing the cry of her child, rushed to the
couple's house but found that the door was locked.
Seeing the harm they had done to Chidinma, the couple
immediately fled their compound. They were later arrested by the Okokomaiko
Police station and dragged before an Apapa Magistrate Court on a three count charge
bordering on assault.
The case is currently in court.
