She narrated her experience to TheNation
"I live with my parents at 4 Kuforiji Street, Orile. On July 7th, I ran away from home after receiving severe beating from my father. My offence was that I tried to stop him from beating my mother. My father accused my mother of using his hard earned money to play lotto game and he descended on her with anything he could lay his hands on. My father alleged that my mother loves patronizing lotto game and he beat her up mercilessly and broke her knees. Despite my mother’s cry for help, none of our neighbours came to her rescue because they are afraid of my father.
I could not bear the beating anymore and I begged my father to stop beating my mother. He became furious and pounced on me.
This is not the first time my father will beat my mother and I. I have lost count of his endless beatings. On one occasion, I begged my mother to relocate four of us her children to Ilorin so we can stay away from our father due to his constant beating. I am the first child but my mother said my father will change but he has gotten worse by the day. My mother is presently on admission at the Charity Hospital at Orile following the beating my father gave her.
I could not stand his beating anymore and I ran away from home to meet one of my mother’s friends at Oyingbo market but I did not meet her when I got to the market. I was in great pains and I decided to sleep in the market because I do not want to go back to my father’s house. It was while I was sleeping at the market that some vigilante men came and rescued me. I told them my plight and they took me to the hospital where I am presently receiving treatment”Also speaking, the secretary of the Vigilante group of Nigeria at Ebutte Metta where Kafayat was found, said after seeing the girl in so much pain, he mobilzed for her to be taken to a nearby hospital to receive medical attention
“On July 7th about 4am, I received a report from our members patrolling the Oyingbo market along the railway line that they found a girl laying in pains in one of the stalls. I told them to bring her to our office and when I saw her body, I asked her what happened and she told me that her father beat her with barb wire. I quickly mobilized and took her to the Star Clinic at Ebute- Metta where she is receiving treatment the wound on her body had become sores and I wonder what type of a father will beat a child like that. I took her to the Iponri police station to report the battering but the policemen there turned me back that they do not handle such a case. I took her to the Area C police Command at Surulere and the police there refused to attend to us. They told me to take her to the office of the Public defender. I have been running around with this girl since morning to get the necessary authority to look into this matter and arrest the father but they have refused to take the case,” the man said.Source: The Nation

What a useless father hmmmm
I can't deal with women always making excuses for their silly husband. Imagine after numerous beating,she was still making excuses for d goat,telling her kid he'd change. She's lucky d idiot called her husband didn't kill her and her child.
It ain't surprising dt our so called foolish men of d force#police refused to handle d case,u don't get to see dem if d case doesn't involve money and dey knw dey aint gona get none from this.
This is the exact thing my dad does then! It's painful
Not everyone deserves to be a father.
That father's monstrosity is out of this world.
Nigeria police are jst crazy....if they can't handle this case which they will they handle then? I don't think her father s normal....useless father...oloriburuku
D man didn't WASTE YEARS of searching for a child...
In addition, she is severely malnourished.
Foolish Police as money nor dey involved they av to bribe them to go and arrest d idiot father God punish Nigeria police
This man is a beast! That woman doesn't love herself and her children enough to leave so as to stay alive. Anyway, I wish her what she wish herself. I only pity this girl and her sibs. I pray help come their way soonest.
#TeamBlessed#
Dis is wickedness... Why shld d police refuse such a case... They shld take d case to women affairs deprtmnt. Dey will handle it.
Hop police av intervain
Eiyaah helpless little girl, his father is a stupid man why will u beat a child becos of what her mother did? I pray they get him arrested. Even the police we hv in Naija re useless self mmtcheew!!!!!!
Frustration father,he should be ashamed of himself.
Can u imagine . Tufiakwa
Stories like these defy a response. You beat your child with barbed wire simply because she was trying to protect her own mother? Then on
fridays you will wear your favorite clothes &
shoes with a quran on your hand saying you are
going to mosque, terrible..
This is CHILD ABUSE!!!! NOT DISCIPLINE! This is heart breaking
Sad...
Nawa o
He deserves to do time
My Angel... Be heal... In Jesus name Amen
OMG! Dis is so bad. D father should b punished accordingly so dat it wil serve as deterrent to others.
O My God, that man must be a beast
He's an animal d child shld b taken away from him#Ewu!
What kind of a father would do this to his child,things are happening,the man needs to be charged and locked up for a while!
WHERE IS THE JUSTIST IN THIS WORLD , POLICE WILL NEVER GIVE THEIR SUPPORT UNTIL YOU ARE DEAD.
WOMEN SHOULD STOP DEPENDING ON A MAN TO FEED THEMSELVES AND THEIR CHILDREN ,
I HAVE EXPERIENCE THIS PROBLEM WITH MY MOTHERS HUSNAD , ,MY STEP FATHER WOULD BEAT HER ALWAYS BECAUSE OF MONEY TO COOK .
Yoruba men sha...poor girl,c wetin poverty dey cause...
Some fathers needs to be shot... Just one bullet through their anus..
Hmmm! Odiegwu!! Her father is a beast.
The police men r worse. What's d work of police to the society bikonu? *protecting lives & properties* so I thought, didn't remember that it was changed long time ago, it's now *standing on useless checkpoints harassing innocent citizens, hiding from armed robbers, jumping into speeding commercial vehicles killing themselves cos of #20 etc*. This is d same way they handle women battering by husbands, they will tell u that they don't handle such case, "go & make peace, na husband & wife matter". Police, you don't have to handle every domestic violence, but you should be able to direct the victims or affected people to the right organisations that will help them out, you should be working hand-in-hand with the NGO's that handle such cases.
Nigeria police swallow your dead on arrival pride and sit up, change is here, police must change!!!!
Subhanalah,what a devil incarnate. And our security personnel too,y a dy make it difficult for d gud Samaritan ehn.
Hang that heartless he goat.
Been long i shed some tears (where my weeping vase at?).
Killer Pop.
Hang him.
God bless the good Samaritans, it shall be well with you. #onelove
GOD PLS SEIZE SOME PEOPLE'S MANHOOD BECAUSE THEY DONT DESERVE TO HAVE CHILDREN. HOW CAN SOMEBODY BEAT A FEMALE CHILD LIKE THIS? THEN WHEN YOU ARE OLD, YOU WILL EXPECT HER TO TAKE CARE OF YOU. STMCHEW
THE MAN IS A COWARD. NA WOMAN BODY YOU DEY GET POWER. WHY YOU NOR GO FIGHT MAN?. IDIOT
The man is a beast and the woman is foolish.
I DONT UNDERSTAND HOW MEN UNLEASH ALL THEIR POWER BEATING WOMEN THAT ARE OBVIOUSLY THE WEAKER SEX. IF NA AMERICA, THIS MAN FOR DON GO JAIL SINCE
This things keeps happening everyday.....What???? This man should be sentenced to 100 years ASAP cus he is capable of murder.
NIGERIAN POLICE IS USELESS. EVEN IF YOU DONT HANDLE CASES LIKE THIS, WHY CAN YOU PICK UP YOUR PHONE AND CALL THE RIGHT POLICE STATION FOR THEM AND TELL THEM TO GO THERE SO THAT THEY WILL BE EXPECTING THEM. THEY DIDNT EVEN BOTHER TO RENDER ANY FORM OF ASSISTANCE AT ALL AFTER THEY WILL SAY POLICE IS YOUR FRIEND. NA ONLY HOW TO GO CHECK POINT GO BEG FOR MONEY AND COLLECT BRIBE THEM SABI. USELESS PEOPLE. STMCHEW
Next time u will learn to obey and respect ur father! Children if these days are so disobedient ehn! Chai!
Dis is really sad. How a father do dis to his own flesh and blood??? Linda take note!

Am I the only one noticing that this girl is malnourished? Women should know when to leave their so called husbands if the situation becomes too dangerous. Children should not be made to witness domestic violence..its unfair to them and destabilize them. Protect your children..you must not die because you want to stay married. Women value yourselves and know you don't deserve it! Life first. A man that can inflict such wound on his child, can you imagine what he would do to his wife? Na wa o!! Marriage no be do or die
Hmmmm...so dis little girl actually said all dis With d beautiful use all vocalbulary or somebody narrated and wrote dis in a beta grammer?....I doubt,tho my view! Annabel
please let them call this number 08023168028 mrs Omotola Rotimi office of the public defender Lagos
Is there any Lagos agency that helps battered women and their children to start a new life?
Her father was wrong to beat her like dis, for a mother to go n play Lotto it is very wrong, so her mother needs deliverance for her husband to stop d beatin.
Omg!!! If d police won't look into dis biko who will? Indeed police is ur frnd. Naija my country I hail thee.
Jesus wept
Heartless father
Heartless father
Parents like this should be sent to prison please...What is all this for God sake?
Just negodu!
I thought the motto of the police is 'To serve and to protect' they can't handle such but they can provide security for a drug baron and yahoo boys..
Despicable set of people!
These policemen tho, if its a case of stop and ask for vehicle particulars now they can be involved wen its not even their job at all...Nuisance
That man is an animal
That man is an animal
So sad...
So gory...
What a father. ..... take her to a human right activist..... infact bring her to me, I will buy the case hmmmm
Nija. When would we grow ehn. Nobody to take a domestic abuse case? So you can't report to police for domestic abuse? Ha na wa
WHAT A WICKED FATHER IS THIS MAY GOD FORGIVE THIS MAN IN JESUS NAME AMEN
Hmmm waka pass
Gosh...such wickedness

Shame on the Nigerian Police. Two police stations drove them away on grounds that they do not handle such cases. The DPO's should be arrested and charged for gross dereliction of duty.
Jide dis man ka egbuo ya. He is a beast
Some fathers needs to be shot... Just one bullet through their anus..
Some people are just animals......
OMG! Dis is so bad. D father should b punished accordingly so dat it wil serve as deterrent to others.
B Such wickedness
You just hit the nail on the head. Lol@hide from armed robbers
My goodness.
What agency is really responsible for the welfare of Naija children? The good samaritan in this case, was turned back on numerous times by the police he initially reported this case to. One can only imagine the unnecessary stress and road blocks that presented in trying to find needed and timely help for this poor child. Would the elected officials stand up and provide the community with resources and emergency contacts for these types of issues? To do otherwise, is #goodcausefortrouble.
May misfortune always dog ur footstep....castrated maloo
that picture of her face shouldn't being shown because it may affect her tomorrow.that will be something she will not like to remember,but now it is online now what if it comeback and hunt her.
