Officials of the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps,
NSCDC, have arrested a woman in Kaduna for allegedly setting her
eight-year- old daughter ablaze with petrol.
According to reports, the mother had asked her daughter to
look after her two younger siblings as she had to go out to attend to her
business. However when she returned, she found out her 8-year-old daughter left
for their neighbour’s house to watch a TV series, leaving her younger siblings
unattended to.
This got her so angry that she went into her house, got
petrol, poured on her daughter and set her on fire, leaving her with serious
burns. She locked the little girl in her house for six days until neighbors
raised alarm and invited the NSCDC officials,
The mother was arrested immediately while the girl was
rushed to the hospital for treatment.
