Newborn Baby Dumped by an Unidentified Woman

The Niger State Child Rights Protection Agency has taken in a baby dumped by an unidentified woman by a Good Samaritan, Hajiya Fatima Adamu.

The newborn baby girl was dumped at a culvert along Kuta Road opposite Central Mosque in Minna, Niger State on Tuesday.

According to her, the baby was wrapped in a cloth and dumped by the roadside close to a culvert and was discovered by passers-by.

“I was called to the scene where the baby was dumped by my neighbours. When I got to the scene, I was told that an unknown woman dropped from a motorcycle, dumped the baby and left with the same motorcycle,” she revealed.

I noticed everybody was afraid to touch the baby, but with the assistance of a vigilante member that lived in the area, I picked her up and went to report the matter to the Central Police Station, Minna.
