Her mother tapped her on the back to warn her to be cautious, as her younger sibling was nearby.
The daughter, reacting angrily, turned and poured the boiling water and garden eggs on her mother, causing serious injuries.
According to reports from EDHUB on X, the mother has chosen not to report the incident to the police, stating that she does not wish to pursue legal action against her daughter.
A video capturing the aftermath features a woman speaking in Akan, lamenting the situation: "Why will you do this to your mother? How will she heal? She has nothing. Just a girl of 14 years. I am so sad, I don’t even know what to do."
