A couple, Mr and Mrs Ifeanyi Akpa, who live at Osubi community in Delta State were yesterday handed over to the police. Members of thecommunity handed them over to the police for brutalising a 13-year old boy, Chigozie, who lives with them.
A resident was quoted as saying ‘Chigozie does all the domestic work in the house, sells pure water during the day and yet they won’t allow the poor boy have peace’.
Hon Oborevwori Sheriff., the Speaker Delta State house of Assembly, who also showed interest in the case, ordered that the boy be taken away from the couple and given scholarship so he could start school and get a better life.
