The wife of Ekiti governor, Mrs Feyisetan Fayose, on Thursday condemned the act of dumping babies on refuse heaps.
She spoke during a visit to the Erelu Angela Adebayo Children Home at Iyin-Ekiti in Irepodun/Ifelodun Local Government Area of the state.
“ Those mothers in the habit of abandoning their responsibilities to their children or babies are incurring the wrath of God.
” Mothers who are unable to take care of their babies should drop them at the motherless babies home through due process instead of dumping them on refuse heaps,’’ she said.
She lamented the rampant cases of abandonment of babies and urged stakeholders to assist in taking care of abandoned children as government could not do this alone.
Fayose also expressed satisfaction with the condition of the babies at the home and thanked the matrons for taking good care of them.
