There was outrage on Sunday at Gwallameji, a suburb of Bauchi, the Bauchi State capital, after a Dog was found eating a newborn baby abandoned at a rubbish dump.
A resident and eye witness narrated the incident to Punch Metro:
“I was coming back home from my church when I saw many people gather behind a house. I became curious and I went to see what was happening.
“What I saw there was disgusting and annoying. Someone had dumped a newborn baby at a rubbish dump and a dog was feasting on it.
“From what I heard people say, the baby was abandoned alive, but was killed by the dog.
“It was an ugly sight to behold– a dog eating a baby! How can someone do this to an innocent child? How can a human life be treated with such levity? It is inhumane.”
When contacted on the telephone, the traditional chief of Gwallameji, Hassan Ibrahim, confirmed the incident.
