The step mother has denied the accusation laid on her, his father and grand mother claim that the little boys body was mutilated by Jinns and his father has not paid a penny or contributed in any way to help Musas treatment, instead he his supporting his wife and emphasizing that she is innocent. He actually tried to bribe a police officer with one thousand naira (#1000 ) to let them go.
The AHF team paid a visit to them and is contributing to the treatment of this little toddler and we are calling on all legal practitioners, human rights activists, human rights lawyers to join us in getting #JusticeforMusa .
The monsters who did this to him should be behind bars. Musa has an elder sister who is in the fathers custody, she should be returned to her mother, where she will be better taken care of. Let's come together and make sure these people are brought to justice. Please contact us to join the movement #JusticeforMusa"
