A 32-year-old housewife, Abimbola Oreoluwa, has been arrested by the Nigeria Security and Civil Defense Corps, NSCDC, Ondo State Command, for inflicting razor blade injuries and pouring hot water on her 12-year-old houseboy.

The suspect was arrested following complaints from a good samaritan of the alleged maltreatment of the houseboy.

Parading the suspect, the State Commandant of NSCDC, Mr Pedro Awili, said Abimbola was found of battering her little house boy whenever he offended her.

“Our investigation revealed that the boy is from the Benin Republic and the woman got him through his master in Abeokuta, Ogun state.

“He brought him as a houseboy and paid N120, 000 to his master. We are going to arrest the man in Abeokuta because this is a case of a child abuse and human trafficking.
