NNPC staff Mrs Betty Ifeoma, who was accused of locking up her 13-year-old maid indoors with little or no food, while she travels out of the country has surrendered herself to the police.

 

Lagos State police P.R.O, Chike Oti who disclosed this, said Ifeoma, a staff of NNPC Lagos state office, who was in the habit of locking her maid up for weeks anytime she is travelling within or out of the country, leaving her with only two packets of cabin biscuit, would be charged to court on Monday 27/11/2017.

Chike further disclosed that Nkechi is currently undergoing interrogation at the Human Rights section of Lagos State Police Command.

After she was rescued, Oseh who told the police that she is an orphan, looked pale and malnourished. She added that whenever her boss travels out of the country and locks her indoors, she resorted to drinking water from the toilet whenever she is thirsty.

 

She also told the CP that she had been locked up at four different times since her uncle brought her from Igboju in Delta State to live with Ifeoma.

A visibly angry Imohimi was said to have mandated that the girl should be handed over to the Child Protection Unit of the State Ministry of Youth and Social Development while vowing that he will personally get to the root of the matter and make sure Ifeoma is prosecuted no matter how highly placed she may be.
