Customs officer chops off 10-year-old girl’s finger over missing N50 but later found

The middle finger of a 10-year-old girl, living with a retired Customs officer has been chopped off.

It was gathered that the woman living at Oko-Afo home, along Badagry Road, sent the victim, Hawau, to take N200 from the N250 she kept on the fridge, to get a certain drug for her.

However, trouble started when Hawau returned from the errand and her guardian asked her for the N50 that should have been left.

Hawau explained to her that she didn’t take the money.

The woman according to informationreportedly immediately dragged the 10-year-old girl inside her room, brought out a matchete and chopped off one of her fingers.

Crying for justice, Hawau’s mother said the painful part is that the said missing N50 was later found with the suspected perpetrator boasting that no police could arrest her!
