A nine-month-old baby, whose name had yet to be ascertained, was seen
crawling by residents, who quickly alerted some policemen on patrol at Shodipo Crescent in the
Ikeja Government Reserved Area of Lagos State
The child was picked up by the policemen and brought to the Lagos State
Police Command headquarters, Ikeja. The baby was thereafter taken for a checkup.
A police source told PUNCH Metro that the child would remain in the police custody until his family showed up with concrete proofs of relationship.
She said, “We found the boy on Shodipo
Crescent in the Ikeja GRA. He is about nine months old. He was found
crawling on the road. Some residents thereafter alerted some policemen
on patrol.
“The police team rescued the baby. So
far, nobody has come up to claim the baby. He must have left the custody
of his parents or guardian and that is how some children fall into the
hands of kidnappers and ritual killers. He is still with us at the
command headquarters.”
