Incredible!! See What A Heartless Mother Did To Her Son For Eating At A Party
Nine-year-old Abdullahi Taoreed has never known any other
mother except Ronke Olayinka. He was just a year old when his
biological mother abandoned him and ran away. The woman was said to have
bolted after Abdullahi clocked one year and was still crawling when his
mates were already walking. Scared out of her wits that she might be saddled with a cripple, the woman took off, leaving the child to her husband.
She
would later remarry. Since her exit from Abdullahi’s life, the woman
had never once bothered to check on her little son. The boy’s father,
unsure of what to do with a crawling child, decided to hand him over to
his elder sister, Ronke Olayinka. Abdullahi’s mother and father would
later die in different years, places and circumstances, leaving the
child an orphan.
Thus Abdullahi grew up to know only Olayinka as his mother and addressed as such. The
boy however soon realised something was fundamentally wrong, when
Olayinka took to spanking him with wood, while she would use a cane on
his other siblings.
He had got used to being pounced on and
beaten within an inch of life with sticks and wood by his mother, but on
June 7, 2015, Olayinka went too far. On one of such occasions, she got a
new blade and used it to slash Abdullahi’s hands. Neighbours later told
the police that the boy’s screams of pains almost brought down their
building at Pipeline Street in Oke-Odo area of Lagos State, where the
incident occurred. Filled with pains and terrified to his bone marrows,
as the blade sliced through flesh, Abdullahi had repeatedly tried to
snatch his hands away.
But Olayinka held onto the little hands
like her life depended on her brutality. Unfazed by the bloodied hands
and pains on the boy’s face, Olayinka took pepper and poured into the
fresh wounds, eliciting more cries of agony. When Sunday Telegraph asked
to speak with the wounded boy, neighbours said he had been rushed to a
nearby hospital by policemen from Oke-Odo Police Station.
On Monday,
Abdullahi was able to speak with our correspondent. By December this
year, Abdullahi will be 10. The boy looked unkempt and had a lot of
scars on his body. He also has two fresh wounds on his head. He said the
head wounds were inflicted on him by his mother. “My mummy used wood to
hit me on the head,” he said, sighing heavily. “I don’t hawk anything,
but I do the cooking.”
The primary two pupil continued: “Yes, it
was my mummy who inflicted blade cuts on my hands because I went to a
party opposite our house to eat. There was no food at home. I was
hungry, so I assisted the people holding the party to carry chairs. I
knew that if I assisted them, they would give me food. They gave me
food. My sister went to report to my mummy. “We went for evening prayer.
After the prayer, my mummy called me and started cutting my hands with a blade. She
went out to buy the blade. The cut was deep. She poured pepper into the
wounds. She then gave me a hot pot of beans to carry to the kitchen
with the bloodied hands. “One of our neighbours, a woman, saw me and
took the pot from me. She went and told everyone in the compound.
People saw my hands and started crying.”
Some of the neighbours, who
said they were tired of Olayinka’s alleged maltreatment of Abdullahi,
mobilised and alerted the police. Recalling his life so far with his
adopted mother, Abdullahi said: “It’s not every time my mummy gives me
food. She uses a piece of wood to beat me, but uses canes on her kids.” Recollecting
how he sustained one of the fresh head injuries, he said: “My mummy
said I should go and buy kerosene. When I got there, the people said the
money was not enough. I went home to tell mummy. She then used a piece
of wood to hit me on my head.”
