A 2-year-old boy and a 4-year-old girl are presently receiving treatment at a private hospital after their stepmother allegedly broke the toddler's left hand, right leg and the other's head. The gallant officers of the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) are currently on the trail of a wicked step mother identified as Hasiya, after she broke the head of a 2-year-old boy, Abdulrahman Abubakar and also broke the left hand, right leg of a 4-year-old girl, Maryam Abubakar, at their father’s house located in NDC in Igabi LGA of Kaduna state.
The toddlers are presently receiving treatment at a private hospital in the state after their stepmother fled the house after security agencies came looking for her at their residence on Monday evening.
The mother of the children, Halima, who spoke to us correspondent in the hospital on Tuesday, said she and her husband started having problem 12 days after her son was born which brought to an end, their three year old marriage.
Quote
“Initially, the children were living with me after we separated, but immediately I weaned my son, the father came and took the children away first to his parents’ house and then to his wife. On Monday, I was on my way to the market when I got a call from the father of my children that my son was on admission at the hospital.
“I quickly rushed there and when I saw the condition my son was in, I was devastated. He could hardly breathe and he had bruises on his eye, his head, his stomach and his private part. The doctor told me that the fracture on my son’s hand and leg were two weeks old, and I learnt he was not able to walk and was taken to a traditional bonesetter who obviously had not been able to fix the fracture.
“My son is being treated for a broken hand, a broken leg and bruises on his eye, stomach, back and private part while my daughter is being treated for a broken head after their step mother used the sole of a pointed shoe to hit her head. They were also starved in the house because if you see the way they gulped down the tea my sister made for them. The people in the hospital can bear me witness,”
she said.

This step mother should be jailed and divorced. Men please be careful when you divorce your wives its the children who suffer most. Wishing the children a quick recovery and hoping the man could reconcile with the mother to the kids

Hausa people get heart no be small. What on earth could have toddlers of 2 and 4 years old do to deserve this kind of treatment. They should make sure they arrest and jail that idiot of a stepmother. And as for men, this is food for thought. Sorry kids, God will heal you soon.
