Officials of the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons have arrested a schoolteacher, Chioma Johnson, for allegedly brutalising a 10-year-old boy over a pot of soup in Makurdi, Benue State.gathered that the victim was brought from Johnson’s husband’s village to live with the couple at their residence on Zakibiam Street in the Wadata area of Makurdi.
A human rights activist, Ukan Kurugh, who spoke to our correspondent, said there were torture marks on different parts of the victim’s body. “She inflicted injuries on him; he looks malnourished as a result of not being fed most times. He has scars on his buttocks and head. “The last time neighbours tried to intervene, she refused to stop. She claimed the boy stole soup from her pot and she would punish him as much as she wanted. The child never left the house, whenever she and her children went out, they locked him up in the house; he would stay at the window and begged passersby for water and food.”
