Lawyer Accused Of Abusing 10-Year-Old House Help Lands In Police Custody

Mrs. Adachukwu Okafor, a lawyer, who allegedly mistreated her 10-year-old house help, has been arrested by the Nigeria Police.

In a statement, Ohaeri Joseph, the Special Assistant on Media to the Minister of Women Affairs, stated that the lawyer had been fleeing since news of her alleged crime broke on the internet.
Joseph also said that the weapons used to harm the child included a broken bottle, a knife, and an electric pressing iron.

The minister had earlier offered a N2 million reward for any information on the lawyer who disappeared after a video of her wrongdoing went viral

“Days after the Minister of Women Affairs, Mrs Uju Ohanenye, placed a N2 million bounty on an Onitsha-based lawyer, Mrs Adachukwu Okafor, for child abuse in Onitsha, she has been arrested.

“The lady’s action, which went viral across various social media platforms, was alleged to have inflicted bodily harm on the minor.

“The lady has been on the run for weeks after being reported to have inflicted severe injuries on the minor, which prompted the minister to place a reward of N2 million for information on her whereabouts,” he said.

Ohaeri stated that the ministry would collaborate with the police to initiate an immediate investigation into the matter

This is great news. Hope the court doles out the stiffest of punishment to her; including allowing the kid's family to inflict similar injuries on her. Wicked and evil bleached face of a woman.
