The burden that comes with unwanted pregnancies have often caused many girls and women to abandon babies on the streets of Lagos and other cities in Nigeria. This has left these children to undergo untold sufferings until hopefully a good Samaritan comes to their aid, National Association of Online Security News Publishers, NAOSNP can report.
Not absolving the women of blame or encouraging bad behavior, the Commissioner of Police, Lagos State Command, CP Olorundare Moshood Jimoh pleads with individuals with the mik of kindness and NGOs like AKEM Foundation to float homes which can house young women who get unwanted pregnancies either by their own fault or otherwise to their delivery period. This step, CP Jimoh believes, will help to reduce cases of abandoned babies citing that ‘there is no woman that will want the child that come out of her womb to be abandoned.’

The Lagos no. 1 Police cop made this appeal at the AKEM Foundation 3.0 Anniversary which held over the weekend. He said that the women engage in this bad practice ‘because they don’t know the future of themselves, or the future of the baby they are bringing to this world. That is why you see motherless babies going up across the country with a huge burden.’

‘I want to challenge all of us, the NGOs that we should look inward. We need to take care of girls, equally adults, that have unwanted pregnancies. I think with that we can be able to reduce the burden of the motherless babies. There is no woman that will want the child that come out of her womb to be abandoned.’
‘I want to challenge AKEM Foundation, other NGOs and foundations to look inward. We can take care of them to the day that they will happily give birth to the baby. And the foundation can even take care of them and the baby from that point’, CP Moshood Jimoh stated.
