CRUEL! Mother burns five-year-old daughter’s hand over missing N170 in Adamawa
A woman identified as Rukkaya Warda has reportedly burnt the hand of her 5-year-old daughter, Godiya, over a missing N170 in Madagali, Adamawa State.
Punch reports that neighbours reported the third-degree burns sustained by the little girl to the Community Response Network in the area led by the District Head of Duhu, Mohammed Sanusi.
Sanusi later handed Rukkaya over to police officers after she confessed to setting the daughter’s hand on fire for her missing N170 which was later found with the girl.
She was subsequently arraigned before Shuwa magistrate’s court. The court ordered that the mother be remanded in prison custody.
It was gathered that Godiya has been taken from the mother and is now in the custody of Adamawa State Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Development.
