A Chief Magistrate’s Court in Enugu East has remanded 47-year-old Anthony Onyeukwu in custody over the death of his 11-year-old houseboy, Goodluck John. The Commissioner for Gender, Ngozi Enih, stated that the remand is part of Enugu State’s efforts to address child abuse. Onyeukwu was arrested after a tip-off from the ministry’s whistleblower channels suggested that Goodluck’s death resulted from abuse in the household. Onyeukwu initially claimed the boy died from illness at Park Lane Hospital in Enugu, but hospital records contradicted this, showing no admission or death registration. He had also buried Goodluck’s body in Abia State without notifying authorities.
