Her hand was amputated.
“Friday sees more smiles than any other day of the workweek!”
I waited for the light to arrive yesterday after collecting my laptop but it didn't come until around 3 am this morning. I charged my laptop, with the new battery installed into it so I could start seeing if it was good or not. So far, it's okay for me and better than the old one. Though I will still be using the old one, and this will make me work more on my laptop even if there's no light.
This man truly is a competent engineer. One who knows his job well and he didn't give me any headache at all and I hope he keeps getting good customers.
Some days ago, I checked my notification and I saw news where a little girl, 2 months old, whose hand was amputated due to the carelessness and cruel attitude of the father. I felt like crying for the small girl who came innocently to a world with two hands but now, she would have to live the rest of her life with a hand because her father was so heartless to make her that way.
According to what I read, the father said his daughter was crying and disturbing him, he got frustrated and used a plastic hanger to beat her till one of the hands got damaged and was amputated. So cruel!
Where was the mother at that moment? Couldn't she have stopped her husband? That part still confuses me now. But my concern is how a father would think of beating a small girl that way not minding if she is still a toddler. A baby who hasn't yet understood anything. A poor girl who was crying due to different reasons but all her father could do is to beat the hell out of her and not think of petting her to stop crying?
Some men thinks that a woman must care for her children while they go out or sit down while doing nothing to help her. Both genders should be able to take care of children and know how to pet a child if he or she is crying. There is a need to understand what a child needs at a point and even if as a man you don't understand, it's still okay but try helping your wife in your little way.
Seriously, some men shouldn't be among fathers. They don't deserve it at all. Would you tell me that man is truly a father? What was he to his wife precisely? A lot of things are happening in the world and it just amazes me when I read anything online.
Do you think if this girl grows up to listen to the story behind her amputated hand, and found out that her father was the cause, will she ever forgive him? This is one reason why some children grow to become successful and forget about their parents. Such a heartless man for that matter.
I saw how the woman was teary holding her baby. She would have been regretting ever getting married to such a beast or she might try to reverse the clock so she could prevent what had happened. In my tribe, they say the knife had caught a child's hand and fell to the ground. The deed has been done already. What next?
She will keep taking care of the child while she nurses the pain for a while until she can forget, but is that worth forgetting completely? The more she sees her child, the more the grieve for her. To me, I would advise her to divorce the man and face her life as a single mother because I wouldn't want her to continue staying with him because who knows what might happen next?
For a man to try such, definitely he can kill without feeling remorseful. It's so sad to me and I pity the small innocent girl. I wonder the pain she would go through during that moment. Thank God she didn't die in the process.
The man is a beast and nothing more because I don't see anything humane in him.
Anyways, it's Friday and I believe we are ready for the weekend. I wish to go out sincerely but where could I possibly go to? Well, I will just be in my room doing my thing on a low key.
For all Nigerians here, the New Naira Notes (#200, #500 and #1000) will be redesigned on the 15th of December. So, get ready to start depositing any available naira notes in your hands to your bank for the new notes.
Thanks for your time.

It's not just a job of a woman to take care of a child, it's a responsibilities of the both. If he can't do it then why need to hurt his own child? I really hate that kind of man.
