Mother burns 9-year-old son's hand for stealing her money

 A Kenyan woman has been accused of burning his son's hand for allegedly stealing her  Sh50.

 

The 9-year-old boy who is currently receiving treatment at Ndhiwa Sub-County Hospital, has been identified as Polycarp Otieno Odhul and it was gathered that the incident occurred at Lower Kayambo location within Ndhiwa Sub-County.

 

The area senior chief Cyprian Obonyo said that he received the information from vigilant members of the community who noticed bruises on the hands of the minor.

 

Obonyo revealed that the woman who sells clothes at Ndhiwa market decided to hide her son for almost one week after the incident.

 

He said; 

 

“Upon receiving the information, I immediately made an urgent move to the location and found that the boy had been hidden by the mother for almost a week.“

 

The Chief said the boy confessed that the mother tied his two hands, poured paraffin and then lit them on fire. He added that the boy’s hands had started rotting by the time he reached the homestead and he had to rush the duo to the police station, after which the boy was taken to the hospital.

 

Obonyo said; 

 

“The boy’s hands had begun to rot due to lack of treatment because the mother had confined him in the house.” 

 

Despite the boy’s mother having a 3-month-old infant, the chief said that the law has to take its course.

Augustine Eguavoen Did A Fine Job As Super Eagles Coach

  By now it is no news to any Nigerian sports fan, that Augustin Eguavoen and his entire team have been relieved of their duties at the helm of affairs of the Nigerian National team. Most Nigerians are happy with this development, with some claiming that his immediate predecessor, Gernot Rohr would have delivered better results. However, a simple analysis of events will clearly demonstrate that Eguavoen did a fine enough job given the circumstances. I will attempt to undertake this analysis by demonstrating, first that Eguavoen has a better record than one might realize, and secondly by comparing the performance of his Super Eagles with that of Afcon winners, Senegal, and runners-up Egypt. When Gernot Rohr was sacked a few weeks to the Afcon, knowledgeable sportspersons decried the move, citing the difficulty any new coach would face in setting up the team to play to his own patterns.
