The First Lady of Anambra State, Dr Nonye Soludo, has visited the hospital where a 10-year-old boy, who was allegedly assaulted by his guardians in Awada, Obosi, in Idemili North Local Government Area of the state, is receiving treatment.
During the visit on Tuesday, Soludo offered to take full responsibility for his rehabilitation and ensure specialised treatment to help him heal physically, emotionally, and psychologically.
The boy, whose viral video circulated on social media showing a scalded body with injuries reportedly inflicted on him by his guardians—a woman and her husband—is currently receiving medical care under state protection.
While assessing the victim’s condition, the Anambra First Lady expressed relief following the reassuring update from the medical team that the boy’s condition is stable.
She pointed out that the victim’s story has touched many hearts and reminded society of its collective responsibility to protect every child from abuse, neglect, and harm.
