A man has been arrested for allegedly brutalizing his wife and his stepchildren. According to people who claim to be close to the situation, the man identified as Iwuchukwu Anajemba Samson is in the habit of brutalizing his wife, Ifunanya Georgina Anajemba, and her kids at their home at Alex Anajemba Street, Akabo Village in Mbaukwu, Anambra state.
He allegedly came home and accused her of gossiping about him with their neighbours. He then attacked her.
Photos of the woman’s scalded skin were shared on Facebook and her husband was accused of being responsible for it. The skin of her legs was peeling, exposing her flesh. The skin on her fingers was also swollen and about ready to burst open.
According to reports, this comes a few weeks after he allegedly poured fuel on one of his stepdaughters and ignited it with a match stick.
In another report, police in Lagos have arrested a barber for brutalising his four-years-old son, leaving him with several bodily scars.
Tunde Alabi was accused of beating his son, Ezekiel to a coma on Sunday.
The four-year-old boy was said to have excreted on his body and Alabi beat him severely, inflicting multiple wounds on him.
The Igando Divisional Police Officer, Taiwo Kasumu, a Chief Superintendent of Police (CSP) confirmed Alabi’s arrest.
He said: “We have arrested him and the child is with us. Though the child can’t be with us; I have contacted the Lagos State Child Protection Unit for further action.”
Residents of 5 Afam Ani Street, Igando where the man lives, said the boy was always being maltreated by his father and stepmother.
One of them said Ezekiel was recently brought back from his mother, who also reportedly suffered domestic violence before leaving Alabi’s home.
“Tunde married another wife and the woman always beat Ezekiel at every little provocation; nobody in the neighbourhood could stop Tunde from beating the boy because of his unruly behaviour.
