A female lawyer based in Calabar Cross River State, Florence Ujinka,
was picked up and interrogated by the police for torturing her 13 year
old househelp, Chidera Asonye Nathaniel. Florence is reported to have used an old fan belt to inflict marks on young Chidera.
The woman was reported to the police by a Child Rights Group called
Basic Rights Counsel Initiative in Calabar, who revealed that since the
woman and her husband brought Chidera from Anambra state to Calabar in
2012 to serve as their househelp, Mrs Ujinka had repeatedly subjected
the young boy to torture and inhuman treatment.
“Mrs Florence
Ujinka has been subjecting Chidera to inhuman and degrading treatment by
torturing him with an automobile fan belt and in the process inflicting
him with severe wounds on his body”. The group said
The group
wants the police to file a case of ‘torture, inhuman and degrading
treatment and child trafficking’ against the lawyer and her doctor
husband. The police in Calabar have promised to investigate the matter
and said the couple would be brought to book soon and made to face the
law.
