A lady simply named as Khadija has reportedly battered her 11-year-old daughter, Fadila, to de@th over a lost N100 in Zaria, Kaduna state.
Leadership reported that Khadija accused Fadila of taking the money that was provided to her at the Sallah festivities And in a fit of fury, the mother allegedly took up an instrument and started striking the daughter, culminating in the kid's death
Some people reported that Khadija was known to routinely beat Fadila over small concerns, notably in situations relating to the street selling which the dead girl was involved in.
The father of the deceased, Malam Mustapha Musa, stated he was at work when the tragedy happened.
Mustapha revealed that he just came home to the tragic news of his daughter’s death and has since brought her remains to their birthplace in Kano State for burial.
Khadija agreed to hitting Fadila, but argued that she did not plan to k!ll her, attributing her conduct to “severe stress” she was going through at the time.
Local vigilante members were the first to act in the incident before passing the case over to the police for further inquiry.
