As I was trying to investigate the boy, I found the phone on him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI raised the matter at several fora with a view to finding a lasting solution to the problem, but nothing has changed<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI initially tried to make the two elderly ones to get married. I provided one of them with a shop which he mismanaged, while the other one forced me to pay the debt he collected.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI sent him to a correctional home in Daura where I spent more than N200,000 on him. Yet that did not work. He is presently at Dengi in Plateau State and I gathered that he is stealing there,\u201d the embattled father said.<\/p>\n<p>As a result of the battle he has been having with these five children, Hassan said he was now hypertensive.<\/p>\n<p>He, however, sought help from the government and people to save him from untimely death by reining in his sons so that they would not kill him in order for \u201cme to fully fulfil my destiny in life\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
