GIST OF THE DAY: 3 Week Old Baby Girl Abandoned By Mother Rescued In Ilesa, Osun State

After 9 full month of painful pregnancy, what
could have forced a mother to abandon her
baby ?
Above is the exact question on everyone’s mind
at a quiet street in Ilesa Osun State Nigeria.
On Wednesday, the residents of Oke Iro street in
Ilesha found a baby girl wrapped in white shawl
abandoned on the silent part of the street.
Good Samaritans took the baby to the Ministry of
Women Affairs and social welfare.
An official report has been filed at the police
station in the area as police official urged
members of the public to provide useful
information on the whereabouts of the baby’
parents.
Mrs Adetoun Adegboyega, Women Affairs and
Social welfare commissioner called on parents to
stop the habit of abandoning their babies.
“ Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola administration is
committed to protecting lives and property.
The people of Osun can see the various
developmental initiatives the government has
taken.
We implore our people to support the
progressive initiatives of the government, ” she
said.
This is sad!
