A housewife who threw her newly born baby boy in a gutter in Lokoja has been arrested by Karaworo residents in Lokoja and handed over to the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) yesterday.
For dumping her new baby boy in a gutter, the middle aged woman is now cooling her heels in NSCDC custody in Lokoja.
According to our findings, the housewife identified as Barikusu Sulaiman was said to have been dating a man in Adankolo since her husband felt sick.
She was arrested following a tip-off by her close friend in Kabawa (names withheld).
The friend, touched by the condition of the abandoned baby ran to an elderly man in Karaworo and confensed that her friend (Barkisu) once told her that she is carrying a seven months pregnancy for one of her sick husband’s boy residing in Adankolo.
According to her, the husband’s boy, identified as Angulu Namama who is currently at large rejected the pregnancy and advised her (Barkisu) to abort the unwanted pregnancy.
Meanwhile, Barkisu has confensed that she threw her one day old infant into the gutter beside her window shortly after delivering her at home because she cheated on her sick husband.
She wept profusely as she spoke with Nationalwatch Tv crew at the Command headquarters in Lokoja, saying she loved her child.
Recall that Nationalwatch Tv reported last week Wednesday that a day-old-baby boy was dumped in a gutter by unwanted mother was found alive, hale and hearty in Karaworo, down Kutepa Juma’at Mosque in Lokoja.
