This 5 year old girl who lives with her stepmother was found wandering
on the streets of Yenagoa, Bayelsa state on Tuesday August 2nd. Facebook
user, Pre-gee Binaibi shared the photos and wrote
"On my way back from my sister's place, I passed by the market. It was
raining seriously, so much that I was seriously feeling feverish. It was
15minuits past seven and I was rushing home.
On my way a man stopped the taxi i was in and begged
the driver to help take a little girl who has been under the rain
selling groundnuts. She was shivering seriously and couldn't walk. She
almost fainted so the people around had to put her in a taxi cos she was
walking home under the very heavy rain. Fortunately she was going my
way so i offered to drop her at the junction were she lives. Getting
there, it was still raining cats and dogs so i took her under a shelf
away from the rain. I was curious to know why a parent will expose their
child to such. I asked her some questions and she said she was 5years,
left the house for the market in the morning to sell. I asked her what
she ate and she said she drank just garri in the morning. Where is your
mum i asked,and she said her mum was home doing nothing. How can parents
be so irresponsible? This is child abuse. Exposing this little girl to
such. I got her something to eat,and then took her home. Only to
discover that she was actually staying with her father's wife. #live
happening here in yenagoa this evening.# #may God help
