Wickedness!! Woman Throws Her 3- day-old Baby Into Dustbin In Edo (Photo)

A 25-year old woman identified as Joy

Tunde was on Tuesday nabbed after she

confessed to have dumped her three

days old baby to an uncompleted

building. She reportedly threw the baby

over a fence into the uncompleted

residential building at Obazuaye Street,

off Osakpamwan Street, Evbareke

Quarters, Egor local government area of

Edo State.

The act was said to have been

committed at about 2am on Saturday,

but residents in the area discovered the

baby three days later.

Sources said thorough Investigations by

the residents led to the discovery of the

baby’s mother. Residents were

prevented from beating up the mother

after she confessed to the crime.

Eyewitnesses told The Nation that the

mother of the baby confessed to the act

when they threatened to deploy

spiritual means to investigate the

incident.

Joy said she threw the baby away

because she had a previous “unwanted”

baby for another man. The woman said

threw the baby away after the man that

impregnated her refused to accept

responsibility for the baby.

Men of the Textile Mill road Police

Division arrested Joy and her mother

but the baby was taken to the Neonatal

clinic of the Benin Central Hospital.

Bruises were discovered on the head

and side of the baby. The hospital

Public Relations Officer, Mrs. Sandra

Omoregbe, said the baby is responding

to treatment.
