A father of five, Austin Segun, who firmly tied his 13-year-old child to a window burglary for three days on the grounds that a Church pioneer said the kid was a wizard, has been given a final offer to leave Eruemukohwarien people group, Ughelli North Local Government Area of Delta State.


Mr. Segun was said to have been released on bail after he was arrested and detained at the Ughelli ‘A’ Division Police Station over the incident. The victim, Tobi Segun, who just finished his Primary 6 School Leaving Certificate exams, was rescued by a group of vigilante, who heard him whimpering at about 2a.m.





How The Boy Was Rescued

One of the vigilante members, who rescued the victim, told Naijcrackgist that during their routine night patrol, they heard the faint cry of the boy saying he wants to die and that he can no longer bear the torture.

The vigilante member, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said: “Immediately, we alerted the community Youth Chairman and others. When we gained access into the house, we saw the boy alone, tied to the window protector while his hands were tied behind him.
.
“Though the parents were not at home, the landlord called the father on phone while the community Youth Chairman alerted the DPO of the Ughelli ‘A’ Division, who personally came and arrested the suspect.”



Why we tied him—Step-mother
Confirming the incident to Naijcrackgist, the victim’s step-mother, Mrs. Edijala Favour Segun, said: “They told us that he is a wizard at a Church we went to for prayers and he also admitted that he is a wizard. “At a point, my husband had to use a hot iron to burn his palm and feet owing to his misbehaviour. Despite this, he opened the fridge in the house and ate everything.

“This led to my husband tying his hands and legs to the protector. He had just been tied for three days before we were arrested. “On that day, our landlord called us on the phone that we should come back to the house. On getting home, we were faced with a crowd that started hitting my husband and me.

“After some minutes, the Police came and arrested my husband, while I was asked to take Tobi to the Ughelli Central Hospital for treatment. “My husband was able to secure his release, but the IPO in charge of the case ordered that we should move out of the community. This was documented and we all agreed to it including leaders of the community.”

Relating his difficulty to Naijcrackgist, Tobi stated: "I generally keep running from the house since I am not happy. My mom is dead and the lady here is my step mother."

so when you burn him with iron and tie him to the window, he's being delivered from the demon. your pastor said he's a wizard then he should deliver him from the spirit.

Madness.

He's not worth to be addressed as a father, he is an animal in human skin!

I knew it must be an AFONJISH FATHER . What I dnt understand is, how a father can do this to his own flesh ND blood . Let the same punishment be done to him as well.

Burned a human being with iron? can't even imagine the pains and torture! oh poor child, ndo.
