Woman get Arrested after dumping her child in pit latrine

 

WICKEDNESS:WOMAN DUMP HER BABY IN PIT LATRINE

A 20-year-old lady, Nwaedoka Chidimma, from the Izzi community in Ebonyi State, has allegedly thrown her newborn into a pit toilet in the Otuocha community, the Anambra East Local Government Area of Anambra State, where she works.

A resident, who gave her name as Esther, said the culprit, who was pregnant at the time, secured a farm job in the community and while on the farm, went to use the toilet after which she came back dripping with blood.

According to Esther, a farmer, the suspect had requested she stay in her (Esther’s) residence for a few days to enable her to carry out the farming job she secured in the area.

She said, “Chidimma is my friend, she begged me to stay at my place for a few days because of a farming job she got. She was working on the farm when she suddenly started acting funny after she complained of stomach upset and went to the pit toilet to ease herself.

After spending time in the toilet, she came out with drops of blood. I thought she had a stillbirth and I quickly invited a nurse who after examining her, disclosed that the baby was gone.

“I encouraged her to travel back home to her parents and notify them of the development because I thought she had a stillbirth.

It was on Tuesday when we started hearing a baby’s cry that we quickly used a ladder to climb down the pit and rescued the newborn and immediately alerted security agencies and the Ministry of Women and Social Welfare.”

The state Commissioner for Women and Social Welfare, Ify Obinabo, who reacted to the development, quickly intervened by taking the newborn to the Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu Teaching Hospital, Amaku Awka for treatment and the culprit was subsequently arrested.

Obinabo disclosed that the baby is stable and currently receiving treatment at the hospital while confirming the arrest of the suspect.

She decried the high rate at which young girls commit crimes, stating that the young mother won’t go unpunished.

She further noted that the state governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo has zero tolerance for such inhumane and dastardly acts

The only Relationship Advice you will Ever Need

 The Only Relationship Advice You’ll Ever Need Danstel 24, July 2020  You may already be rolling your eyes at the vast oversimplification of this title… and if you were to go back to read the many articles I’ve written on relationships, you’d know that I don’t think the secret to romantic success can be boiled down to one simple piece of advice. However, if people ask me what is the most important action we can take to improve our relationships and stay in love, I do have an answer, and that is to  just be kind . Yes, the suggestion seems obvious on one hand, but it’s actually really hard for most couples to take at a certain point in their relationship. Many people I’ve talked to resisted the recommendation, responding with statements like “I can’t do that, or “why would I be nice to him/her?” To understand why we have this resistance and why we often find it challenging to simply be kind to our partner, there are three important concepts to consider: Fear of Intimacy  – The reason ma

What's Ruining your Sex Life?

What’s Ruining Your Sex Life? Danstel17,2020 Sexuality invites us to be in the moment, connected to our body, our senses, and to another person. Yet having a “ critical inner voice ” sounding off in our minds during sex is a little like having an extra person in the room critiquing everything from our desirableness to our performance. These critical inner voices take us out of the experience, remove us from our bodies and leave us disconnected from our partner, robbing us of the precious aspects of sexuality. It’s probably no surprise to hear that research has shown that having higher self-esteem and a more positive body image is correlated with increased sexual satisfaction. On the other hand, negative thoughts toward ourselves heighten our stress levels, which can  decrease sexual satisfaction . One recent  study  showed that measures of self-esteem, autonomy, and empathy were positively associated with sexual pleasure, while other  research  has revealed that people with low self-es
