Margaret Joshua : Poor Innocent Girl Killed
By: Balami Lazarus
I am writing this piece to draw attention of individuals and organizations on the killing of Margaret Joshua recently in Vom. And this is not to rejuvenate the already existing hate speech hovering around the country which has fractured our individual and corporate existence as a nation. Kudos to the Federal government and some few concerned Nigerians working tirelessly to nib the bub of hate speech symptoms that is beginning to root itself in the body-polity of our dear nation.
Imagine your innocent young lovely daughter of 11years who is full of life starved, physically tortured and severely beaten with cable wire for a period of time and was poured hot groundnut oil on her buttocks and later died from burn injuries and pains. This act was carried out by her guardian who you sincerely entrusted her care with, to have a good life in character and in learning.
This is exactly what Anthropologist Margaret Mead said “first sign of civilization in an ancient culture is care …” Therefore, children need to be loved and cared for. It reminds me of Richard kuklinski . Kuklinski was a top Mafian contract killer who claimed to have murdered over 200 people in a career lasting 43 years.
Richard has never physically tortured, abused or killed a child intentionally or accidentally. In fact, his love for children made him had brawls with his neighbours and friends during his life time . If Mr and Mrs. Finnas Nwachukwu were his neighbours the story would have been different.

Mrs. Finnas Nwachukwu
Over the years I have seen and heard of child abuse of different kinds and never bothered to raise my voice either by writing or following up to its legal conclusion. But this particular one has touched my heart so deep looking at how this young rural poor girl from Kebbi state was brutally killed by one Mrs. Nneamaka Finnas Nwachukwu a mother of two young girls of 5 and 3years who was working at the National Institute of Trypanamaosis Research (NITR) Vom ; where one will least expected such an act will take place, considering the educational background of the family in question who were believed to be socially exposed to physically with intent to cause grievious hurt and injury on Margaret resulting to her death.

In this case, i will like to expressed my bitterness on the family of Mrs. Nwachukwu who were the centre-stage of the brutal killing of Young Margaret Joshua a minor in the eye of the law, who has no right of consent. Thus, i will hook this satanic act on some Igbo women who called themselves wives and are found wanting when it comes to caring for other children that are not of their blood.
This action of child abuse has pervaded social media and screen of our televisions caused by these Igbo mothers, a clear case of Mrs Nneamaka Finnas a daughter of one Dr. and Mrs. Ralph Uzoigwe former Acting Director General of NITR Vom.
Now that Mrs Finnas Nnamaka had successfully carried out this criminal act? What the caring public are saying ; has it added any value to her live and that of her family? Capital No. Rather she and her family are now encircled in ripples of embarrassments , disgraced, shame, mockery and emotional pains.
Interestingly , NEWSng and other media are following up the case which is before a court of law of competent jurisdiction holden in Jos .

The Borno State Police Command has launched an investigation into the suspected infanticide of a newborn whose lifeless body was discovered in a pit toilet at the Kuya Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) Camp in Monguno.
Zagazola gathered reliably that the incident occurred on April 24, 2025, at about 0630hrs when the camp chairman, Faki Isa, reported the discovery. The newborn’s body was found in the toilet, and it is believed the baby may have been abandoned there by an unknown woman.
A team of investigators visited the scene, and the body was taken to the General Hospital Monguno, where it was confirmed dead by a medical doctor. The corpse was later released to the Kuya IDP Camp chairman for burial.
No arrests have been made so far, but the investigation is ongoing with efforts to trace the individual responsible for the crime.

A 30-year-old herder, Muazu Anaruwa, was killed and 40 cows rustled by suspected bandits in Kogon Dutse village, Old Muri district of Taraba State.
Zagazola Makama gathered that the incident, which occurred on April 22, came to light after Muazu’s father, Alhaji Audu Anaruwa, reported that his son had gone out to graze their cattle but failed to return home.
Police operative later discovered Muazu’s body in the grazing area, bearing what appeared to be a bullet wound, while all the livestock were missing.
Local sources described the attack as a case of banditry and cattle rustling. The body of the deceased was evacuated to the Primary Healthcare Centre in Andami, where a medical officer confirmed his death.
He has since been buried according to Islamic rites.
Police say efforts are ongoing within the local security network, including hunters and vigilantes, to track the perpetrators and recover the stolen cattle.
