Four months ago, the little girl pictured above was reportedly abandoned at a pit toilet in Akwa Ibom by her own mother. The little girl whose name is MmeyeneAbasi has Cerebral Palsy.
Her mother got tired of nursing her and abandoned the child in the pit toilet in her blind mother’s compound.
An optician, Benjamin Omin, pictured above with her, was alerted by residents of the community and he immediately took her to his hospital in the state where she has since been recuperating.
”When I got the call about a little child thrown off to die by a pit toilet, it jolted me and I immediately moved to the location and found her wrapped in feaces and even though she had becomed undesirable to the world around her, I saw a life waiting for help and I made myself available and today we celebrate 4months in the Majesty Hospital and Eye Clinic, 60 Barracks Road, Uyo. Akwa Ibom State and she has recovered greatly.
A story of Hope and New Beginning” Benjamin wrote
