Police have reportedly arrested a woman in Anambra State over allegations involving her seven-year-old daughter.
The case has sparked outrage after claims emerged about the child being used in inappropriate online content.
The reported arrest follows growing calls for authorities to protect the child and investigate the allegations.
According to reports, the woman allegedly defended her online activities when confronted about the accusations.
“Nobody can do me anything. I will continue to do what makes me money online. You all are not saints and you all have done worse in private,” she allegedly said.
The reported statement has further fueled anger among Nigerians who have called for swift action.
Authorities are expected to establish the facts surrounding the allegations and determine whether any offences were committed.
Child-protection experts generally stress that minors must be protected from exploitation and harmful online exposure.
The reported arrest could allow investigators to examine the circumstances surrounding the alleged content.
It may also help authorities determine whether other people were involved in producing or sharing it.
Further updates are expected from the police as authorities continue investigating the allegations.
