A 9 year old Onyinyechi Nkerem girl was yesterday rescued from the hands of her aunt Chioma Okereke with whom she lived for just 4 months by Lagos Based NGO Project Alert
According to the founder of the NGO, Mrs Josephine Effah-Chukwuma, the little girl was tortured and brutalized severally by her aunt Chioma Okereke. Chioma inflicted wounds on the little girl's head, back, eyes and legs.
Pictures show little Onyinyechi; her head with wound scars; her back; her grandmother and father Bernard standing; and angry youths outside their home.
NO CHILD SHOULD BE A MAID TO ANYONE, she concluded.
