Hospital sources said that the baby is in good condition and ready to be handed over to the Social Welfare Department of the State Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Development.

As at the time of filing the report officials of the Department were said to be at the clinic to receive the abandoned baby.

A nurse said; “It is sad that a lady would freely throw away the gift of the Almighty. It is one of the ills of our society. It is so unfortunate at a time when some people are praying fervently to God to bless them with a baby that their prayers have not been answered.”
