A very scary event took place recently at Utak Street, off Nkemba
Street, in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State. Three months ago, a busy working class
single mum employed a 17-year-old girl to help take care of her
2-year-old daughter.
Recently, while the lady was engrossed with a
TV programme, her daughter needed attention and she called the help
more than three times and the help kept responding that she was in the
toilet.
When it became unnecessarily too long, she tiptoed into the help’s room and opened the toilet door.
To her horror, she met the help squatting with blood all over the
bathroom with a stillborn newly delivered baby hanging in-between her
legs. She screamed and ran out of her apartment into the street.
While in the hospital, she refused treatment and claimed she drank
herbs and was given some to insert in her v**ina to force the baby out.
The help said she was warned not to allow orthodox medical treatment.
When asked, the help explained that the pregnancy was six months old.
Her employer said she didn’t know she was pregnant as she is a very
slim girl and she thought that the small protruding tummy was just an
evidence of good living with her. She was smart in discharge of her
duties, so there was nothing to suspect.
The help was sent parking afterward.
Pictures of the stillborn baby are given below.
