This Nigerian couple were jailed yesterday. Was their daughter right to have reported her parents to the authorities and in the process responsible for sending them to jail?
------
A Nigerian couple have been sentenced to seven years in prison each for a decade long campaign of abuse against their six children. They face deportation after their sentence.

The Nigerian couple, who claimed their kids were possessed by evil spirits, beat them with brooms, hoovers and wires and even gave their baby a morphine overdose just days after her first birthday.
The plight of the children was so bad that Coronation Street actress Michelle Collins, who met them at a church lunch, took them to the cinema 'because she felt sorry for them'
Five of the children were finally rescued after their eldest daughter threw a heart-wrenching SOS note out of a window.
But it wasn't until their one-year-old baby was given a morphine overdose over a year later that police reopened the case which led to their prosecution.
But the parents, both 40, who cannot be named to protect their six children, claimed they were victims of a conspiracy - and even alleged Miss Collins was involved in a witch hunt against them and wanted to ‘steal’ their children.

Naija culture will not survive in foreign soil. How did they confirm the kids were demonized? Let them get deported and com to start a church in Naija, UK will envy their wealth in a matter of months.

U can train ur child anywhere not by beating though...beating will only harden their heart to evil things but if u let them realise what is wrong and correct them with love, trust me be it abroad or naija u will be fine. i live in london and ive seen many parent training their children without serious beating, u dont even mention beating anyhow and they doing well
