Days following Imohimi Edgal, the Lagos State Commissioner of Police leading a group of policemen to rescue a 13-year-old girl identified as Nkechi Oseh, in No. 30 Adeniran Ajao Estate Anthony, her boss has reported to the police station.

As stated by the Lagos State police P.R.O, Chike Oti, her manager, Ms Betty Ifeoma, reported himself to the authorities, this day, and she's presently undergoing interrogation in the Human Rights part of Lagos State Police Command.

The suspect would be charged to court on Monday 27/11/2017. It was gathered that Ifeoma, a staff of NNPC Lagos state office, was in the habit of locking her up for weeks anytime she is travelling within or out of the country, leaving her with only two packets of cabin biscuit.

After she was rescued, Nkechi who was looking pale and malnourished, said she is an orphan. She said whenever her boss travels and locks her in, she resorts to drinking water from the toilet whenever she is thirsty.

It was observed that Nkechi had been subjected to series of domestic attacks as scars were seen all over her body. She told Edgal that she has been locked up four different times, since her uncle brought her from Igboju in Delta state.

In her words: “I have been locked up for two weeks, one-week, three-weeks when she traveled to London and since she traveled on Saturday. I have been crying before God helped me today.”.

An empty packet of biscuits and a container of eaten food which was passed through the burglary proof for Nkechi to eat was discovered on the floor. She is currently under the care of the Child Protection Unit of the Ministry of Youth and Social Development.
