Girl Chained For Eight Years By Her Mother Inside a Room Rescued By NSCDC in Kaduna

"Yes I can confirm that we received intelligence from the Kaduna State Ministry of Human Services and Social Development that one Hauwa from Lere was in illegal detention at a family house.
In response we identified the location and found that the victim had been locked up for eight years and we rescued her.
NSCDC rescue girl locked up inside a room and chained for eight years by her mother in Kaduna''

"I was informed of Hauwa's ordeal by one Rukaiya Sani; immediately I reached out to NSCDC and we went and found the situation to be true. For those eight long years, this girl did not see the light of the sun, she ate inside the room, defecated inside the room; in fact, the precarious situation has affected her mental health at the moment.
Right now she's at a hospital where she's been rehabilitated; thereafter we'll seek psychiatric care at a tertiary hospital. She was put in this condition by her mother, but that'll not stop us from prosecuting whoever is involved according to the laws of the state,” she said

"Yes, Hauwa is my sister, she was locked up because of her bad manners. She was so disrespectful and would at the slightest provocation insult our mother who is also playing fatherly role over us. That's why I believe God cursed her to suffer this way, because she's mentally deranged,” Gaddafi said
