What a strange world. We are stunned as we report this.The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) has arrested a 23-year-old woman in Jigawa for allegedly dumping her new born baby boy in a toilet. The Corps Commandant in the state, Mr Muhammad Gidado, said in Dutse that the suspect was arrested following a tip-off by patriotic citizens.
The suspect gave birth to the baby on Sept. 1 around 11.30p.m and allegedly dumped it in the toilet. The suspect alleged that she was impregnated by a man who ordered her to dump the baby. The man has also been arrested, adding that “he confessed to committing the offence”. He said that medical examination conducted at General Hospital, Hadejia, revealed that the suspect gave birth to the baby.
He stated that efforts were being made to recover the baby, which he said “might be dead by now due to the hours it spent” in the toilet. The suspects would be charged to court after investigation had been concluded.
What a callous pair! Dumping an innocent baby in a toilet is a no-no! May God forgive them!
