Majuo area of Zik’s Avenue, Awka, wore a gory sight yesterday as the body of about five weeks old baby, presumed to have been aborted, was found dead and dumped into a roadside drainage.
Awka Residents, who clustered around the scene pelting curses on the culprit of such despicable act, said that the baby must have been wrapped in clothes and thrown into the gutter while it rained last night.
One of the onlookers, Mr. Aiza Nwosu, who said he had informed the police about the incident, condemned the act and described it as abhorrent and crass immorality.
A mother, Mrs. Tonyin Joseph, who barely held back her emotions, said apart from the incident being abominable, it adds up to the anxieties of women, who go through many degrading experiences because of their inability to give birth.
