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 our little children!
