According to reports, the nursing mum who welcomed a set of twins in March, allegedly gave the minor the beating of her life after she fell one of her babies that she was cradling.

Skit maker, Lord Zeus, who has been following the case, said Idinma among many things was denied access to education as her benefactors stopped her from going to school. He disclosed that Idinma is currently in a hospital receiving medical attention for the injuries she sustained from the assault meted on her by her benefactors.
