A Facebook user, Onyeka Mbaeze, who witnessed the bloody scene, posted the story on his wall where he narrated how the man beat up the boy to a point of death and was only restrained by his neighbours.

"My people, this child was beaten by his master this morning; according to the master, he says that this child stole his money to school.
Please, my people, is it a good thing to do to someone's child? This just happened in this Lagos."
The cases of child abuse, especially when it comes to house helps, have become rampant in Nigeria even with the Child Right Act that has been promulgated into law.
