Command On Wednesday,
2/8/17, at a lecture parade with the officers and men of Onitsha Area
Command, the CP stumbled on the case of an abandoned baby recovered by
the police after more than one week.
Sequel
to intelligence reports, it was discovered that one Chinwendu Njoku got
pregnant; and was suddenly found not pregnant again. The Police
arrested and interrogated her only to discover that she was actually the
lady that gave birth to the baby and dumped him in the bush. .
Either
by divine intervention or stroke of luck, the young man responsible for
the pregnancy showed up at the police Division. On interrogation by the
CP personally, it was discovered that the young man indicated interest
to marry the lady but her family turned him down because he was
unemployed and does not have a “family name”. .
On
learning about this, CP Garba Baba UMAR psc was depressed and shocked
to the marrow. He wondered why somebody can take such rash decision
while many are looking for the fruit of the womb for donkey years. .
After
counselling the duo and without hesitation, he offered a huge amount of
money for the rehabilitation of the young man and lady. He said the man
should use the cash to start up a business while the lady should
acquire any skill of her choice to earn a living for the child and
herself. .
CP UMAR also made provision
for the care of the new born baby and announced automatic scholarship
for the baby child while volunteering for his training too. The
Commissioner of Police reunited the couple and handed over the baby to
them. He also directed the DPO to keep an eye on the family and ensure
that the money is used judiciously. .
The
beneficiaries were so stunned by the benevolence of the CP and shed
tears of joy as they appreciated and prayed for him and his family.
