Mother Bathes Son With Hot Water For Bringing Girlfriend Home

Eko Hot Blog reports that a woman Maryam Zakari, has allegedly bathed his son, Babanne Abdulahi, with hot water for having the effrontery to bring his girlfriend home in Cross River State.

The woman was said to have boiled water with which he showered her son last Thursday, leaving him with severe burns.

The incident took place at Bogobiri, the Hausa-Fulani residential area in in the city.

“The woman saw the boy in his room with his girlfriend instead of cautioning him verbally, she decided to drench the young man with hot water. She poured the hot water on his body and shouted out for help,” an eyewitness, Dauda said.

According to Vanguard, many sympathisers besieged the residence of the Babanne scolding the woman for her improper action.

“It is not just the girlfriend issue but because the son does not remit his daily wages to her but gives it to his girlfriend,” Dauda, a Babanne’s neighbor said.

The victim was rushed to a private clinic in Calabar for medical attention.

When contacted, the state police command Public Relations Officer, Irene Ugbo, said the matter was yet to be reported to her.

Efforts to speak with the husband and the wife proved fruitless as they both kept mum.
