POLICE ARREST WOMAN THAT TORTURED AND DUMPED HER SON IN A PETROL STATION
This 9 year old boy, was rescued by Good Samaritans on Thursday, after he was abandoned by his mother at a petrol station. There were signs of severe torture on the boy who was later taken to a nearby police station.
Blessing Goodluck, the mother of the boy, who abandoned him at a filling station on Ijaiye Road in the Agbado area of Lagos, has been apprehended by the police.
The police trailed the 23-year-old mother to Ojuelegba, where the son claimed they lived, without success. It was learnt that she was eventually traced to a residence on Sule Babalola Street, Agbado.
PunchMetro gathered that the primary two pupil was taken to a general hospital for treatment. He was seen playing around on Sunday when our correspondent visited the police station.
The mother, who admitted her action was wrong, said she was frustrated, describing her son as being troublesome.
“I have realised that I over-reacted. Kingsley is very stubborn and troublesome. He won’t sit at home. He will be jumping from one house to another. I was frustrated. I promise it will never happen again. I have learnt my lesson.”
A police source told PUNCH Metro that Blessing wept all night in custody. The source said Kingsley had also been counselled to turn a new leaf.
The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Kenneth Nwosu, said Blessing was still under interrogation and would be charged to court afterwards.
He said, “This is a case of child abuse. The 23-year-old mother was arrested on Sule Babalola Street, Agbado. The boy was abandoned in a bad condition. He was treated at the Lagos State General Hospital, Ile Epo. The mother is under interrogation.”
