Madam scalds 16-year-old maid with hot water for “stealing” two eggs
A 16-year-old maid was allegedly scalded with hot water by her madam, one Mrs. Darasimi Martins, in the Mushin area of Lagos on Monday.
Martins allegedly rained hot water on the teenager’s face and body for returning home with four eggs instead of the six eggs she was sent.
Martins, a resident at Olomowewe Street, was said to have accused the maid of stealing two of the eggs.
Reports say that was not the first time Martins would subject the maid to grievous form of punishment.
She was promptly arrested by police operatives attached to Olosan Division in Mushin, after the case was reported by the Child Protection Network (CPN).
