As we walked into the room where the babies slept, played and eat the smell was overpowering, they all were sick with diarrhoea full with dirty nappies that looked like they had not been changed all day , the had all lost weight and where skin and bone , we later found out that the babies where not getting any medication for their diarrhoea…this is no exaggeration, it was that bad!
…
It gets worse..while we were talking to the administrator one of the little children by the name of Tolu who was brain damaged due to the way he was delivered (his mother standing and him delivered head first) like any 2yr old boy went playing amongst some donated gift items…what happened next was the nail in the coffin for me….Ms Regina Adegbite slapped the little boy on his face! In front of 4 mothers, when she was confronted about her action she said she would do it again, that the boy was stubborn.

    Thanks for link Caretaker, there is a complaint at the moment being made via Linkachild, put the process is slow. What I would like is a body that acts souly on behalf and the procetion of the kids…Once there is a complaint like this the kids shoul be removed!, but not so with our process.
    I was at Alausa in Lagos and was given the runaround.
    I dont think i would have access to the home anymore..and i really dont care, as long those babies are removed from the home that is all I am bothered about at the moment!

    so who ever can help get in touch and lets get things moving…Pls!

    i think that the government shpuld be tasked in helping this little babies and that big organisations should also help the young ones.

    Hello there, I very much support your concern about the issues of babies not being well taken good care of. Unfortunately, Nigeria’s government are not truly concerned for this babies.

    Please do not fail to contact me via email.

    Babies are gift from God.

    I am Ahmed Mustapha, from Arabic Emirate, I proposed visiting this organization before my ill health attack of cancer.

    Yet, it can not stop me from doing what I promised Allah.

    I want to be sure if this is a motherless organization or even less privileged where I can accomplish my promise to Allah.

    Please be sincere to almighty Allah and be blessed.
