A yet-to-be-identified school in Ogun state has become the center of criticism after photos of a 3-year-old pupil's badly bruised legs were shared online after she was flogged by a teacher.

The multiple cane marks were discovered after the child returned from school, having a fever and the parents had to get drugs for her.

A Twitter user who is familiar with the family, shared photos of the girl's injuries and the drugs bought to treat her after the incident.

She also revealed that after reaching out to the school, they were unapologetic about the incident.
