Anambra govt declares lawyer who brutalised house help wanted

Anambra State Ministry of Women and Social Welfare has declared a lawyer, Mrs Adachukwu Okafor wanted.

Okafor was accused of serially abusing her teenage house help, including burning her buttocks with a hot pressing iron.

A video of her rescued aide which trended on social media recently, showed the young girl with scalded body, as she was also unable to walk.

The young girl was rescued by some concerned individuals after they noticed her body.

The lady lawyer was also quoted to have tongue-lashed the neighbours, including boasting that no one can arrest her for trying to enforce discipline in her home.

She was, however, said to have disappeared, after the video got to the knowledge of the Anambra State government, who sought to arrest her.

The commissioner for Women Affairs and Social Welfare, Hon Ify Obinabo in a press release she signed on Monday said: “Adachukwu Okafor stands accused of using knives and other sharp objects to inflict injuries on her 11-year-old housekeeper.

“Anyone who can provide information leading to the arrest of Adachukwu Okafor will be handsomely rewarded.”
