Abandoned baby found this morning at Ilupeju

The baby, with umbilical cord, blood and all, was found abandoned around 10am this morning at Shilon Junction, Ilupeju. The new born was abandoned near a dustbin close to the express. Unbelievably sad! Continue to see the photo of the baby...

  19. May God punish the mother of this baby. How could she do this when millions are looking unto God for children. She could have put the boy up for adoption instead of doing this. I have a friend whose has no left eye because his eyes were eaten by rodents after his mother abandoned him on a huge pile of garbage. May God save us in this nation.

  20. this is so sad!!where some people ar trying to av chilren someone is throwing away such a cute baby that would be a change to the world one day. she would av just aborted it during the early weeks of the pregnancy rather than abandoning the child to suffer.

  21. Why? Do people still do this? I'm surprised and offended at the person who did this evil! May God move this baby to heights never imagined, and may the silly mother regret this action like most of them end up doing.

  36. If d fada of dis child had been there for the mother, this wouldn't have happened. You people are busy insulting the woman. If you have ever been abandoned pregnant by a man then you will know is not about carrying it for 9 mnths. The mother of this child must be in pains for doing this but probably is handicapped and has no choice. Men!!! Be warned. You people are the cause of evils!

  37. OMG!!! How can a human being be this cruel?? afta 9months??? God must visit that wicked heart that abandoned this very cute baby!

  44. THE WOMAN THAT ABANDONED THIS BABY SHOULD NOT BE BLAMED , A STUPID MAN SOMEWHERE WHO REFUSED TO LIVE UP TO AND CLAIM HIS SHARED RESPONSIBILITY MADE THIS HAPPEN AS WELL, I DO NOT JUDGE THIS WOMAN NO ONE KNOWS HER CIRCUMSTANCE, AND ALL YOU HYPROCRITE COMMENTERS SAYING GOD SHOULD PUNISH HER INSTEAD OF DOING SO WHY NOT GO AND BE A SAMARITAN AND ADOPT THE BABY AND CARE FOR THE CHILD, ITS A SAD OCCURENCE HOWEVER, DONT JUDGE YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU OR SOMEONE YOU KNOW WOULD DO IN THE SAME SITUATION.

    Mr Man this is ur cue, go and adopt hm/her

  47. Stop blaming just the mother. If the man who impregnated her had stayed with her, this would not have happened. If we continue this way, things like this can never stop. It's so sad. People should always remember karma.

    EMMM...COME TO THINK OF IT, THE CHILD STILL HAS THE UMBILICAL CORD, MEANING THERES NO WAY THIS CHILD WAS BORN IN A HOSPITAL WITH A NURSE ATTENDING TO IT. AND THERE'S LITTLE POSSIBILITY OF THE WOMAN WHO IS FRAIL AND WEAK FROM THE PAINS OF CHILDBIRTH TO WALK A DISTANCE JUST TO DISPOSE OF THE CHILD. I SMELL SOMETHING FISHY HERE...SPEECHLESS

    The fact that the baby did not die before help came means that God's will is being done in his life.This child has a great destiny and being with his mother'd probably have thwarted that destiny.I pray God's will'll done in your life till the very end,amen.

    People, pls! If God answrd these kind of prayers, a lot of U would be dead right now. If u really know this God whom u want to punish this girl, then u would know that he would want u to forgive d woman this atrocity and find a way to help the child and the mother. Women don't go thru 9 months only to throw away all she labourd for. Circumstances are at play here and some of them would b out of her control. Do u actually think this woman would want to throw her own baby away? So, let's not crucify her yet. God will make a way for that child, this much i know.
    P.S. Let it be known that i, do not approve of this. This is the result of a woman's inability to know her self worth and price and a man's inability to control his sexual appetite. People, it is also possible that this child could be an end-product of a man's deceit and a woman's gullibility. Women an advice- not every guy who tells u i love you means it. If he hasn't put a ring on your finger and is impatient to hve sex with you, then that dude dosenlt love you in any sense...he admired something about you and told u it was love.
    Love for a person is like a 10 year old boy's love for a PS 3- he wouldn't let anything bad happen to it and would protect it with utmost care.
    So, i'm saying that if a man should tell u that the only way to prove his love to u is by sleeping with you...... Check properly, that was neva love to begin with. A woman's virginity is the best gift she can give to her husband and forever, if that man is a true person, he will treasure that woman more than silver and gold and strive to retain her more than the diamonds of the earth because in a woman, is a lot that words cannot explain. As the bible puts it, a woman is "worth more than rubies"

    1. I am not knocking down anything you have said, but don't make virginity sound like its the ultimate gift for us men. I didn't get the memo that said a marrying a virgin is the road to a happy marraige. There are lots of women out there that did not marry as virgins and their husbands hold them in high esteem; the world has changed biko.Nothing you say here will stop folks from having sex, we should be more concerned with creating institutions that can take care of legal adoptions so that women can have an alternative, rich folks should get surrogates instead of all the buying and selling of babies we hear about everyday.

  60. I cannot even get angry @ the biological mom, infact,i av a feeling of deja vu...this time too last year, my adopted sis was 'abandoned' like this n guess what, till tomorrow, I will always thank the woman who 'dumped' her,cos she's such a joy!!! I only pray this baby will end up in the right home,with the right family..

  61. God, this baby is sooo cute. I have been waiting on God 4 a child for 8 years and its breaks my heart to see this and know that people are still throwing babies away.

  67. How can you say the woman should not be blamed?!?!?!?...ehn? While I understand that situation pushes people to making such drastic (callous) decisions, I insist: ONCE YOU ARE READY TO START HAVING SEX, YOU SHOULD BE WILLING TO BEAR THE FULL CONSEQUENCES OF YOUR ACTIONS!!!..including pregancies, STI and HIV. Otherwise, stay celibate! Except she was raped of course- that will be a different story

  68. Linda, llet us know if they are open to adopting the baby so we can make enquiries

  69. What if the mother of this baby is some crazy homeless woman? Ever wondered what happens to d pregnant crazy women u pass on d street? Or dont they give birth after 9months? Minof women affairs or some NGO should do something abt that. Wish i could help..

  71. It's really amazing how people are quick to jugde and curse the mother who abandoned this beautiful gift of God. As much as this is a very sad thing to do, the fact is that amongst many who have cursed the mother are ladies who have probably aborted a pregnancy before, and guys who have impregnated ladies and abandoned them when the music got turned up. I can imagine how much tears the mother would have shed when she was dropping the child over the night. I pity both the mother and the child. May God show her mercy and make this child an addition to our world.

  73. Sad but thank God she did not abort him or kill him. it could have been worse

    ReplyDelete
  74. This is exactly why people do things in secrecy in Naija. We are among the quickest to judge others when many of us are doing even worse behind closed doors.

    Before judging the woman, why not at least commend her for not getting an abortion first off, and then not killing the baby; especially in Naija where the likelihood of getting away with it is high.

    You don't know her circumstance. You don't know if she is a teenager, if she was raped and can't bear to raise a child under the circumstance. You don't know if she's just financially unable to care for the child knowing that the Naija government doesn't assist with welfare.

    She at least left the child in a public place so he or she could be found. For all of you praying curses on her, I pray you're not being cursed in the same way for other actions you've committed.

    SMH!

  75. let us not support what is wrong all in the name of empathy. if the mother could wait for 9 months, give birth and then throw the baby away, then no need to mince words, she is indeed wicked. she throw the baby near the thrash for pete's sake! she didnt leave him at the orphanage steps. she had wicked intentions and God dont and still dont like all that ugliness and wickedness. what a shame sha o! yesterday an LIB reader complained of enduring 12 years with a child and another who got it so easy throw hers away. lot of kids in this world needing parental love, dear lIB reader of yesterday, this is one for u to cherish in ur heart even though he didnt come from ur body.

  88. She could have just simply taken the child to a motherless babies home than through him away to die. People don't do this any more, this is wickedness! This is to someone somewhere who is probably nursing kind of wicked idea, ple-a-s-e take the baby to a motherless babies home or put the baby up for adoption. God will see your heart that u mean well for the baby.
