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!
