The Police Command in Kebbi have arrested Aliyu Umar, father of the 12-year-old boy chained for two years in an animal stall in Badariya area of Birnin Kebbi Local Government.
Abubakar added that the father had admitted to the police that he tied up the boy with a rope in view of his inability to sustain his medication.

“The father had claimed that he had taken the boy to native doctors for medication up to the extent of selling some of his properties, but all in vain.
“Instead, he decided to prevent him from roaming about in the town, stoning people’s’ vehicles as well as injuring himself which could lead to his death.”
