A day-old baby was found abandoned close to a church by the roadside in Ikorodu, Lagos State.

The baby girl’s cry was heard by a resident who was on her way to a store in the area around 6.30 am.

Upon moving closer to the crying baby, the resident observed that she was fully clothed but there was no adult with her.

The resident raised the alarm to attract other persons in the area to the incident but when no one claimed the baby, the resident, suspecting that the baby’s mother abandoned her at the location at midnight, reported the case to the Ikorodu Police Division.

SP Benjamin Hundeyin, who confirmed the incident to Punch, said the baby was receiving treatment at the Ikorodu General Hospital.

He said, “Around 7am today (Monday), a resident came to the station and reported that on her way to a nearby provision store to buy bread around 6.30am, she heard the cry of a baby.

“She checked and saw a newborn girl wrapped and kept beside the road, close to a church. She called the attention of neighbours but nobody claimed the baby, so she reported at the station.

“The baby, believed to be one day old, has been taken from the scene, and sent to the Ikorodu General Hospital, for treatment. The Family Support Unit of the Ikorodu Division is conducting a preliminary investigation into the case.”
