The Lagos State Government, through the Directorate of Citizens' Rights, has rescued a severely abused 12-year old boy residing at No. 64 Moricass Road, Agege when his story went viral on the social media, especially on Facebook

Speaking on the incident, the Director for Citizens' Rights, Mrs. Biola Oseni said as soon as the Agency got to know about the abused child she led her team to the stated address on Sunday, 1st of March, 2020, around 5.30 pm, to meet with the boy and his family as well as verify the true situation of things.

Oseni asserted that findings revealed that the boy's mother was the abuser who severely beat her son to stupor with blood oozing out from different parts of his body as a form of punishment.

She said, “When the parents eventually arrived, the boy was not with them. So the rescue team had to effect the arrest of both parents with the help of police officers with the hope of compelling them to produce the boy, which they eventually did”.

While noting that the boy has since been taken from the Police Station and handed over to the Ministry of Youth and Social Development for necessary action, Oseni pointed out that the woman has since been detained at the Police Station and would soon be charged to court

Is this not the same doctor with the commissioner talking with the man?

Absolutely. That's the medical director of the hospital and the commissioner. Any problem?

I bet many won't actually watch the video.

He was standing outside, at a distance of more than 2 metres when he was talking to the patient. He wasn't under any risk. Furthermore, the patient is no longer coughing and sneezing.

Those who go into the room to interact with the patient wear protective gear, but he was not in the room at the time that he was talking to the patient.

During the media briefing made by Minister of health this morning,he made mention of the driver that drove the Italian from the airport being isolated and his condition monitored.

Yes. That's true. The commissioner of health of Lagos State and Lafarge said the same thing and I watched the minister's briefing today. However, they did not say that he is an Uber driver. In fact, the commissioner was specifically asked about the Uber driver and he said that it's fake news.


There is an Uber driver that is under surveillance, but he picked up another Italian from the airport. It wasn't the same Italian that tested positive for the virus. That Uber driver is under 14 days surveillance.

Watch the commissioner's briefing here.

Who is he? 95% of Nigerians don't know who he is. Irrelevant people making noise for the papers, so that they can print and stay relevant. The national leadership of the APC will not explain why the party will not implement the report of its committee on restructuring... Because you, the newspaper and does who read it av zero political advantage to the party. If you want something to keep body and soul together, just ask the relevant people because of your services to the nation they will help.
