“Meanwhile, she admitted also that when it happened, the child had not eaten, which means she must have been hungry.

“The woman has nothing: the father of the child abandoned them two years ago, she still has another 8-year-old daughter. They can barely feed and she is owing house rent so if we had not intervened with treatment, immediately, that child’s burnt would have been badly infected.”

THE GUARDIAN reported that Ibor further stated, “A crime has been committed and of cause police will have to be notified. She needs to pay for her crime, but we have not taken that decision yet because it will not be proper to do that now.

“Our commitment now is on the child’s treatment and her mother’s support who have actually been very supportive in staying with the child in the hospital.Jamb Results

“The child still responds to the issue of love to the mother so it will be against the child’s interest if we do that now. We are not immediately available to provide the services, now we want the child to heal reasonable while we discuss prosecution.”
