It was gathered that the incident, which occurred on Sunday at the Azikoro suburb of Yenagoa, caused pandemonium as neighbours battled to prevent the victim from bleeding to death.

While some rushed the victim to the hospital, others quickly contacted the International Federation of Women Lawyers, FIDA, who promptly alerted the police.

According to an eyewitness, “the incident occurred at about 7.30a.m., Sunday, while the residents were preparing for church service. The victim’s aunty, simply identified as Beauty, attacked the girl with sharp iron rod for refusing to take care of the aged mother.”

Vanguard confirmed yesterday from officials of FIDA that the accused was in the custody of the police, while processes to file charges against her in court were ongoing.

Messi's fifth-place finish is his worst since 2006 and it comes despite leading Barcelona to La Liga and Copa del Rey titles. The midfielder adds the award to his list of others accolades received this year, including UEFA Best Player, FIFA Best Men's Player and the Golden Ball at the World Cup. Modric helped Real Madrid win its third straight Champions League title earlier this year before taking Croatia to its first World Cup appearance. Croatia's captain scored two goals, had one assist and led the tournament in minutes played and mile
