Nigerian Twitter user (@ryann_agada) shared these photos and narrated how a man who married a second wife brutally disfigured his son’s face with a hot knife for stealing meat from the pot in Cross River State.
According to her, ‘his dad always beat him. The scar on his face was as a result of a knife the dad put in the fire and placed on his jaw because he stole meat from the pot’.

I have been seeing this little boy for a couple of days, but I thought he was just one random kid that stays around. But he caught my attention yesterday when I saw him standing close to a flower in front of my house… He was acting as if he was hiding from someone…

I called him and asked what he was doing there. He said nothing.
I told him to leave that place and go home, he said he couldn’t. I asked why, and he told me his story…

His dad always beat him. The scar on his face was as a result of a knife the dad put in the fire and placed on his jaw because he stole meat from the pot.
He said he was hungry so I gave him food, water and then told him to go home and apologise to his dad.????— Badt Geh Ryry?? (@ryann_agada)
I went out and came back around 11pm to see this little child sleeping in front of one closed shop, Outside. It was drizzling and everywhere was cold. I woke him up and asked why he hasn’t gone home. In his words ” my father pursue me from house because my auntie break ??

(I’m trying to post the video but it’s not loading i don’t know why)I couldn’t leave him outside so I told him to sleep in my corridor. I gave him a wrapper to cover himself. I was even scared. So this morning I took him to one policeman ??
