A middle-aged woman, Linda Alapa, has been apprehended by the Lagos State police command for allegedly beating her 10-year-old housemaid, Joy Mbafan, to death.
Mbafan lived with the suspect on Bolanle Oduniyi Street, Okegbegun, in the Ikorodu area of the state.
According to reports, Alapa was flogging the girl for a misdemeanor around 3am last Monday when she passed out and died afterwards.
At the Ikorodu General Hospital morgue where she had gone to deposit Mbafan’s corpse, a doctor on duty was said to have noticed marks of violence on the body and alerted the police at the Sagamu Road Division.
A police source told Punch that after interrogation, Alapa confessed to beating the girl, adding that she would be charged with murder.
“She wanted to absolve herself of the death of the victim, but for the doctor on duty who raised the alarm after a close examination and she was arrested. There are marks of violence on the body of the deceased and she did not deny beating her.”
Some residents of Bolanle Oduniyi Street, who spoke to PUNCH Metro on Wednesday, said they had warned her many times to desist from assaulting the victim to no avail.
A neighbour of the suspect said Alapa did not only beat the girl but also starved her of food.
The woman, who gave her name only as Ellen, said although she did not know what led to the beating on that day, “she usually beat the girl for messing up their apartment.”
“Around 3am on the day the girl died, I heard her crying as the woman (Alapa) flogged her. I woke up my husband to intervene. He said he was tired of the woman’s insults. After a while, she stopped crying.
“It was when I came back from work that afternoon that I saw a crowd on our premises in tears. They said Joy (Mbafan) was dead. The woman’s husband was not at home that day. It was the landlord that told him about the incident on the telephone.”
Punch reports that the landlord and Alapa’s husband were not around when they visited the residence on Wednesday. The Alapas’ apartment was locked.
Another resident, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the girl’s father was late while her mother was ill, adding that Alapa had brought her to Lagos from a village in the eastern part of Nigeria.
“But she used to beat up and starve the girl of food. On several occasions, the girl would come to me to eat, saying her aunty did not give her food.”
Lamenting Mbafan’s death, a trader in the area, who identified herself only as Deborah, told PUNCH Metro that she had urged the suspect to counsel Mbafan rather than apply corporal punishment.
She said,
“She made that little girl to lose self-confidence. Her body bore marks of lashes. Now that the girl is dead, she should also face the music.”
The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, SP Dolapo Badmos, in a text message, said,
“I confirm the case. The suspect is under investigation while the corpse has been deposited in a morgue for autopsy.”
So Instagram entertainment platform, Kraks TV, shared a lovely photo (above) of a girl child which had an interesting caption, asking her followers if they’s slap the child for N50m.
While their followers went on about how they’d slap her and even her family, Nigerian rapper, M.I Abaga, who’s a leading advocate against domestic violence on women, followed the train and said he’d even slap her soul.
Now the apparent question is, given the celebrity’s status against the pressing issue in the society, is it right for him to have joined in in the trend which was tricky or he should have used the opportunity to further press that no woman should be a victim of domestic violence?
Should he be overlooked or be condemned?! Is the question on everyone’s lips?

The beautiful gospel artiste and former Nigerian child star, whose wedding bells rang some weeks back, can’t stop gushing about her romantic honeymoon in Dubai.
The beloved shared these beautiful photos alongside details about her most frightening journey at Safari Desert.
In her own words:
Take me back to Dubai!!!
One of our favorite moments was the Dessert Safari trip.
To go on the dessert trip, they have to reduce the air in the tyre to a certain level. The mode of transportation are jeeps and they go in two’s. We found out that in incase anything goes wrong in the dessert. The other jeep can assist and inform the authorities for help.
As we started the trip, the driver told us to fasten our sit belts (He went round to be sure we all had our belts on)to enjoy the ride and he put on really loud music so our screaming would drown in the music. Did i mention that we were accomapnied by an indian couple with their really cute children.
By the time he got to the dessert and we started the journey, he started taking some bends and turns. My people, it was crazily good and frightning.I was trying to code myself because of those children before they start wondering why that Aunty was screaming like that. The ride was bumpy and exciting. I prayed at some point when it seemed like the jeep was going upside down. The couple and the hubs were amused. He even has a video.
By the time we got out of the dessert. We got to a stop over shop to take a break. I did Thanksgiving and went for an ice cream break while the driver pumped the tyre back to its normal level.
But guess what? That trip i will never forget. It’s certainly one of the many adventures I will try again but not anytime now. Lemme recover fully from the last biko!
Major shout out to @dandptravels for making our trip to Dubia extra special. They are your go to people for holiday,honeymoon package. Ours was beautiful. Thanks to God and you guys did a great job!#ReachThemForYoursFam

The Nigerian government has reportedly approved a policy that would see it paying whistle-blowers to encourage the reporting of crimes and other scandals.
According to Premium Times, part of the highlights of the new policy is that whistle-blowers whose revelations lead to recovery of money would be entitled to up to five per cent of the recovered sum.
The report says the policy was approved Wednesday, December 21, 2016 at the meeting of the Federal Executive Council , chaired by President Muhammadu Buhari inside the Council Chamber of the Aso Rock Villa.
Kemi Adeosun, the finance minister, made the revelation after the meeting adding that the policy is in conjunction with the office of the Attorney-General of the Federation and minister of Justice and that it would be a stop-gap initiative until the National Assembly formally passes a law on whistle-blowing.
According to her, the policy is to strengthen the fight against corruption by the Muhammadu Buhari administration.
To make this work, the government is to set up a website and provide a phone number and email for people while anonymity and protection of whistle-blowers would be encouraged.
A magistrate court in Osun state on Tuesday, issued an arrest warrant on the traditional ruler Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Abdulrasheed Akanbi.
The arrest warrant was issued due to the refusal of the monarch to honour a court summons issued in November to answer to a suit filed against him by another monarch, Oluwo of Iwo-Oke, Oba Kadiri Adeoye.
Oba Adeoye accused the Oluwo of Iwo of concealing some facts about his past before he was installed as a first class monarch about a year ago.
Channels TV reported that the monarch was also accused of keeping armed thugs around to oppress, molest and attack his antagonists. The affidavit also stated that the monarch was involved in the internet fraud commonly known as ‘Yahoo-Yahoo’ operating from inside his palace.
The plaintiff also claimed that Oba Akanbi forged his name to obtain travelling documents to the United States where he was jailed in New York City and was deported to Nigeria in 2000.
He also stated that the monarch later traveled out with his real identity to Canada in 2001 and got the Canadian citizenship but was again arrested in Toronto and was in jail between 2006 and 2007.
The monarch, Oba Akanbi, however reacted to these allegations in a 13 paragraph affidavit through the Aremo of Iwo land, Adelani Akanbi describing the application filed against the monarch by Oba Adeoye as “scandalous, vexations and designed to embarrass, blackmail and ridicule the monarch in the view of right thinking members of the society”.
The absence of the monarch in court to defend himself however made the chief magistrate to order his arrest and the case was adjourned to December 27, 2016.

A 16-year-old girl is allegedly carrying a seven-month-old pregnancy for her 56 years old father, Prophet Taiwo Oluboyode, in Odode, Idanre area of Ondo State.
According to Vanguard, the suspect, who owns a white garment church and currently in police custody, allegedly informed his interrogators that he was tempted by the devil to commit the act.
However, people in the agrarian community, are of the opinion that the cleric must have carried out the act “to renew his spiritual power.”
Findings in the town showed that the cleric is popular and his church, located at Oke-Ijebu Street, Odode, Idanre, always records high traffic of miracle-seeking worshippers from far and near on a regular basis.
Sources close to the church revealed that the prophet is a specialist in bathing women in streams to ward off evil spirits and those tormented by spiritual husbands, who prevent them from getting married or having babies.
Reports had it that the prophet lives alone with his daughter after the wife left him years back. It was learned that efforts by the estranged wife to take her daughter along with her were rebuffed by the suspect, who insisted he needed her around to run errands and take care of him in the interim.
A family source hinted that the suspect had refused to remarry after the wife left and had preferred sleeping with his daughter instead. It was unclear if the victim raised any alarm over her defilement by her father, but neighbours said that the girl was always keeping to herself.
Vanguard learned that the victim stopped going to school when signs that she is pregnant was becoming evident. Her school mates, who came to the house to ask after her, were informed by the father that she had travelled to Lagos to continue her studies.
It was gathered from police source that when the victim took in and informed the suspect, he allegedly gave her some concoctions to terminate the pregnancy. The attempt, it was learned, failed.
The suspect, according to a source, contemplated smuggling the victim out of the house to a private clinic, but she refused and threatened to raise alarm. The suspect then instructed the victim to stay indoors to avoid suspicion from church members and their neighbours.
It was revealed that one of the neighbours, who saw the girl with a protruding stomach, raised the alarm. Police laid ambush and arrested the suspect when he returned home.
Detectives said that the only words uttered by the suspect was “it was temptation and the work of the devil.”
The church is presently under lock and key, while other leaders and members of the church have gone underground for fear of arrest Police detectives at Ala Police Station in Akure, confirmed that the cleric had been arrested and would soon be prosecuted.

The Federal Operations Unit, Ikeja, of the Nigeria Customs Service has intercepted 102 bags of plastic rice branded “Beat Tomato Rice” with no date of manufacture.
The Customs Area Controller of F.O.U. Comptroller Mohammed Haruna, on Tuesday in Lagos said that the commodity was stored for distribution as Yuletide gifts for the public.
Haruna said that officers of the unit intercepted the plastic rice along Ikeja area on Monday, adding that a suspect was arrested in connection with the seizure.
He said,
“Before now, I thought it was a rumour that the plastic rice is all over the country but with this seizure, I have been totally convinced that such rice exists.
We have done the preliminary analysis on the plastic rice. After boiling, it was sticky and only God knows what would have happened if people consumed it.
I advise those economic saboteurs who see yuletide season as a peak period for nefarious acts to desist from such illegal business.
The unit has decided other operational modalities that will make them run for their monies and count their losses.”
He described smuggling as a global phenomenon, adding that such act could not be curbed entirely but could be brought to its barest minimum.
Haruna appreciated well-meaning Nigerians who provided the service with prompt information that led to the discovery of the bags of plastic rice.
The controller, however, advised the media to educate the public on the existence of plastic rice, adding that it was no longer a rumour.
Haruna assured the public that the distribution point of the particular plastic rice seized by the unit had been blocked with immediate effect.
He said that investigation was still ongoing. The controller said the unit would handover the plastic rice to the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control for proper investigation.
