An 11-year-old girl in Lagos has told how her aunty, smeared her face and body with hot knife for watching television.
Nkiru Egboanu, who left her village in Anambra State three years ago to stay with her uncle and his wife, was literally turned into an animal by her uncle’s wife, Uju Basil. The young girl’s predicament reached its peak last week when her guardian allegedly placed a knife in a burning stove and defaced her body with the red hot knife.



Story continues here I don't want to paste it all so as not to bore you.

Why are women so evil? Especially to kids that aren't theirs? I mean like what do they gain from it? Just because a child is not yours doesn't give you the right to maltreat him/her.

You know the most annoying part is that, this kids don't even do nothing wrong to their "madams". They are the always working type, but their 'madams' don't see that.

Okay y'all should read the story and tell me what you think.

OMG! r there people like dat for real!i only see stuff like that in movies!! Wow!! How in the world can anybody be that mean. That's evil. God help us all

holy mary mother of jesus wth is this

The term [i]housegirl [/i]alone gives me the creeps. In many instances it's just one step above slavery (as demonstrated in this case)

That's so M.E.A.N

I thought such happens in Nigerian movies only, with people like Patience acting such roles. So people are this CRUEL in real life??

May God help us!!!

child abuse moving to d next level

her husband may try kill this matter, but any Human Right activist here? Lawyers, NGOs and others; pls let's do something about this. It's not enough to just talk about it.

Such a woman may afterall be cannibalistic (human eater).

i'm sorry if i upset you guyz, but i hate Stepmothers with a passion n lord help me if i ever set my eyez on mine. really i don't understand the reason for this, let's say the child was outright stubborn..there are other wayz of punishing this kid than defacing her. wat happened to kneeling down or sending the child to go fetch water. for all you know, the girl's father is a lump, probably goin to say that he'll talk to his wife n in the end, the poor girl will be sent to the village. iono when all this will stop, but it's just not right.

Aren't you people upset by this practice of housegirls?

Damn, that's so inhumane. I wouldn't care if the women was my wife or not, I would've had her butt locked up quick, and organized an proper beat-down to great her when she got in. SLUT!!!

This is so mean,she should be locked up and the key thrown away

GOSH, SO THERE R PPL LIKE DIZ ON EARTH, HOW CAN SOMEONE DO SUCH A THING ESP. 2 SUCH A LIL GURL LIKE DAT? DA LADY NEEDS 2 BE LOCKED UP 4REAL. I NEVA LIKED DAT CONCEPT OF "HOUSEGURL" OR DA CASE MAYBE. MOST OF THEM ARE BEEN TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF...EVEN IN THIS GURL'S CASE, DA LADY'S HUSBAND IS HER UNCLE....LAWDDDDDDDD HELP USSSS

this is very sad.. very very sad.. its even from my own state.. so speechless

Infact ehh, i read it and i was like.. LORD HAVE MERCY! Like.. who would do that to someone else's kids.

Yes stuffs like this happen in real life. Even tho it might seem fake, but it does happen. Most of these girls that are being called "househelps" are sometimes more better, and really hardworking than even the kids of the person they stay with.

Wtf is nigeria turning to? Child abuse to the highest level.

Real evil woman, they are many.
What could have driven her crazy to treat a fellow human being in like manner?
The same way you were born so she was, just that you were priviledge to be rich.
What a pity!

Most of them are not even rich! Infact majority of the ones that maltreat househelps or "husband sisters".. are the low/average class women.

It's just evil. Evil evil.. i have no explaination watsoever that i can use to tell u wat i think it is.

It's [size=18pt]child abuse![/size]

OMG, infact, all this housegirl's thingy, i wouldnt support it, this woman is so wicked, God.

look @ how deep d cut is

That is wickedness of the highest order. I thinkl the woman must be possessed by some elements and radicals[color=#990000][/color] of mama e water

This has nothing to do with mami water. SOme women are just naturally evil.

e be like u sef be one sometime........... a=bi no be so ??..... what has mamiwater got to do with a woman who is naturally wicked........... can u just learn to look beyond your nose......

oh my! that is so inhumane. sadly, people actually do this sort of things. it's really sad and rather unfortunate.She(stepmother) does need prayers. O lord!!!!!

what would the Authorities do to this woman.......?

In Nigeria, is this really a big deal? Some people have done worse to their own children and we clap for them and say, "yeah, this man/woman is a disciplinarian!"

not in a situation where it involves a housegirl and her mistress... and the young girl I strongly believe would have been deprived on watching TV, and cos she wanna get the glimpse of what a TV is and trynna still a look... led to the chopping off of a part of her..... that would not have happened if she were with her parents, even if she had done worst than that.......... but cos she is farv from the hands and embrace if a mother made such menace happen.... where re the parents of the girl......re they evergreen or what?

hot-angel:

SOme women are just naturally evil.

No human is naturally evil.
