TRAGIC CASE: A couple, Paul Onyeama and Adline Ogbonna, have been arrested in the Igando area of Lagos State after their 10-year-old adopted daughter, Faith, reportedly died following alleged prolonged abuse. Residents said the child had been subjected to persistent maltreatment, including frequent beatings and being sent on strenuous errands despite her young age. The situation reportedly worsened after she fell ill for about two weeks, but the alleged abuse continued. According to witnesses, the incident escalated on Sunday when the couple allegedly beat the sick child severely, after which she died. She was later taken to a hospital where she was confirmed dead on arrival. Residents, who grew suspicious after noticing unusual activity, alerted others when the couple allegedly attempted to conceal the incident. The woman was first apprehended by youths in the area, while the husband was also later held when he returned. The matter was reported to the Igando Police Division, leading to their arrest and the recovery of the child’s body. A police source said the suspects claimed the child was ill and died while receiving treatment, but preliminary findings indicated she was already dead before arriving at the hospital. The case has since been transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department, Panti, for further investigation. Authorities have assured that a full investigation is ongoing as the community calls for justice.
