The touching tale of a boy from Kebbi State has got Nigerians angry as they demand justice for him on Twitter.
Jibril Aliyu is from Badariya Area of Kebbi State and he was chained alongside animals for two years by his two stepmothers.
His mother died two years and he was denied shelter, clothing, food and health care. His being maltreated by those around him led to him feeding on the remnant of the food of the animals he was tied with.
Fortunately for Jibril, a human rights activist came to his rescue. But sadly, the inhumane conditions he has been subjected to has made him to start acting like an animal.
Apparently, his father was aware of his plight and did nothing about it. He and his two wives (responsible for chaining Jibril) are currently in police custody.

His mother died 2 years ago. He was denied shelter, clothing, food, not to talk of health care. pic.twitter.com/n7sJ5TH1zS

He was maltreated by these same people like an animal to the extent that he was feeding on the remnant food of the animals he was tied with and even ate his faeces, until he was rescued by some Human Right Activist. pic.twitter.com/dwtBDBQbWM

What is most surprising is the fact that his father was living in the same house with them while he undergoes this inhumane and savagely cruel treatment. pic.twitter.com/YQYF9DMdpe

His 2 evil step mothers, together with his father are currently in police custody. While the 10 year old Jibril is undergoing treatment and rehabilitation at the Federal Medical Center Birnin Kebbi. What happened to Jibril is the highest level of barbarity and extreme cruelty.

These are the kind of issues the North are supposed to be tackling instead of sentencing an innocent man to death for blasphemy. What a shame! #JusticeForJibril pic.twitter.com/duGFcdy1Ic

Nigeria, a country with different laws for different people.
If you don't deal with religion with sense, religion will enslave you.
