According to the medium, a tweep, Kanu Garba, confirmed the baby’s death in a tweet, yesterday evening, saying, “The two-month-old baby who was beaten by his father for disturbing his sleep died today.
“Before his death, the hand injured had to be amputated. The father can now sleep peacefully.”
The assault on the baby had attracted condemnation and outrage, with the Imo State Chapter of the Nigeria Association of Women Journalists (NAWOJ), and the National Human Right Commission (NHRC) calling on the Imo State Government and the police to immediately arrest and prosecute the suspect.
However, the suspect is still at large as there is no report of his arrest yet.
My taught is that the father of the boy should be arrested for murder. Kindly share your thoughts via the comment section below to join the discussion.
