The corpse of a yet to be identified young boy who was allegedly abused by his parents was at the weekend brought to the children emergency ward of the FMC Yenagoa, Bayelsa State.
This was made known in pictures shared on the Facebook page of Simon Ateba some hours ago.
He wrote: Child abuse in Nigeria. This child was brought to an emergency ward in Yenagoa dead, allegedly abused by his parents, someone is saying.
It was reported that an undisclosed Facebook user had shared the pictures on social media. The poster wrote: “This child was brought into CHEW (children emergency) FMC yenagoa dead. what a father and his wife( victims step mum) could do to a child.”

Child abuse is when a parent or caregiver, whether through action or failing to act, causes injury, death, emotional harm or risk of serious harm to a child.
