Woman allegedly burns her 11 year old daughter in her private area (photo)

This  happened on Friday, 27th November at No 27, Prof Adenusi street Aga ikorodu, Lagos State. The woman allegedly burnt her 11 year old daughter with a hot iron from her thighs up to her private area...(I had to cut out that area) for coming back late from school.

"The girl is her daughter but the woman is married to another man. The girl is still in the house, no one has seen her. Please we need relevant authorities or agencies to come to her rescue. The pictures are graphic. Thank you" The person wrote

Biko, NGOs that handle cases like this should please take this up. There should be some kind of penalty for child cruelty!                                                                                                                                          Source: Linda Ikeji’s Blog
