Photos of Taiwo
Korede, a deeply malnourished 9-year-old child in captivity has surfaced
online. In the photos, Korede has a chain with a big padlock around his neck.
He was left half-dressed in the premises of the Celestial Church of Christ, Key
of Joy Parish, Ijawo. According to Amanda
Chisom Blog, the child was rescued on July 22nd by the officers of the
Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) at the Ajibawo area in
Ado Odo Ota Division 2.
The report
confirmed the boy had been their captive for two weeks, and it is unclear if he
was abducted or was held by the church authorities with his parents’ consent.
As at press
time, the case was still under investigations and no one had been arrested for
such grievous crime of child abuse.

gut-wrenching photos; viewers’ discretion is advised:
