The Lagos State Police Command has arrested a mother, Busola Oyediran and her lover, Akebiara Emmanuel, on Friday, January 13, following reports by neighbours for allegedly physically assaulting their two children aged five and two.
The concerned neighbours had alerted the police of the constant physical abuse of the minors by their mother and her partner. Following the report, the police stormed the Egbeda/Idimu home of the couple and arrested them. The police later visited the hospital where the neighbours had taken the battered children for treatment.
When confronted, their mother claimed the children fell from a motorcycle and suffered serious injuries.
Confirming the arrest to LIB, the spokesperson of the state police command, SP Benjamin, said the couple is currently in detention and will be arraigned in court by Monday, January I6. He said the father of the children has been alerted.
