In what appears to be on the top of the list for the most outrageous cases of child abuse, a senior civil servant in Borno State has been arrested by the state’s Civil Defence command for allegedly inserting electric heater into the anus of his 10-year old son for allegedly being gay.
The top civil servant, who is a director of planning in one of the ministries, was said to have committed the heinous act upon hearing that his son, a minor, was involved in homosexal acts with some politicians.
While the boy told his father, whose identity was concealed, that he was raped at their 1000 Government Housing Estate residence.
But his father, who shares the same ideology as Boko Haram, not only dismissed his story, but decided to punish the boy, thus inflicting him with severe bodily injuries.
The young boy is a victim of his homosexual rapists and now, a victim of the ignorance and wickedness of his father.
Vanguard reports that the victim was chained before his father, who is reported to have denied his children an education because “Western education is evil”, inserted an electric ring in his anus.
It was further gathered that the civil servant recently chained one of his daughters named Mama for insulting her stepmother in the estate.
A top government official, who pleaded anonymity, said the director had been arrested.
The state Police Public Relations Officer of Borno State Command, Mr. Victor Isuku is yet to react to this development.
