Peace Goewam, the underage maid captured in a video that went viral where she was slammed on the ground has been finally rescued by the police authorities in Enugu State.
The woman, Mrs. Amaka Ortolehi, was captured maltreating the child-maid in a disgusting way and manner. This incident led Mr. Ahmad Abdulrahman, Commissioner of Police, Enugu State to launch a man-hunt for her.
The police commissioner said it was an eyesore when he viewed the video. “I gave an order to my technical officers and anti-cult team; this led to her arrest alongside Nkemakolam Ortolehi, her husband. The uncle to the maid, Mr. Jonathan Goewan, who brought the girl to Enugu from Jos and probably sold her to the Ortolehi’s for selfish interest, was also arrested.
The
commissioner of police remarked that everyone involved in the girl child’s
ordeal would face prosecution and appropriate punishment would be meted on
them.
However,
Mrs. Otholehi has blamed the devil for her actions. “I don’t know what
came over me. I do not treat her in such a manner before. You can ask our
neighbors and her school. This is not how we have been living; I am a lover of
children. Anger has put me into this. I love peace and we have been living
together for two years, this is just something that went out of the ordinary.
