The Tayi area of Minna, the capital of Niger state, was the site of the rescue of an abandoned baby boy who was just one day old.
Some hours after being abandoned by an unidentified individual on Saturday night, the infant was discovered, according to a source.
The infant, he said, was abandoned naked and wrapped in leather.
“Before he was found, ants had already begun crawling on him,” he continued. To this day, I still cannot comprehend the gravity of this situation. People who commit this ought to be punished with the death penalty.
The baby was found with his umbilical chord still attached, according to the source, and had only been in the water for a few hours.
He bemoaned the fact that the boy’s body had been simply washed and discarded without any blood being applied.
