The woman was nabbed for throwing her newborn baby into a gutter in the Karaworo area of Lokoja, Kogi State.

The baby was found dumped on Wednesday, October 2, 2024.

The suspect was apprehended by residents of the area and handed over to the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC).

It was gathered that the woman was arrested following a tip-off by a woman in Kabawa area of Lokoja who was said to be her close confidant.

“Touched by the condition of the abandoned baby, her friend ran to an elderly man in Karaworo-Lokoja and confessed the crime of her friend (Barkisu) to him," a resident of Karaworo-Lokoja, who spoke under condition of anonymity, said.

“She told the elderly man that her friend (Barkisu) once told her that she was carrying a seven months pregnancy for one of her sick husband’s servants, residing in Adankolo-Lokoja."

She added that the alleged father of her friend’s baby, said to be at large, had rejected the pregnancy and advised her to abort it.

Community members were said to have moved against Barkisu and arrested her, and that she allegedly confessed that “she threw her one-day-old infant into the gutter because she cheated on her sick husband.

The Kogi commandant of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Paul Igweibuke, confirmed the arrest of Barkisu.


“The woman was handed over to my command by the Ministry of Women Affairs, Kogi State,” he stated.


“The crime of the woman is that she had been married to another man, with whom she has six children.

“The man suffered a spinal cord injury, which has rendered him invalid. Unfortunately, she became pregnant out of wedlock. 

"She later threw the baby from upstairs due to the circumstances surrounding her pregnancy

“We are keeping her in custody as NSCDC is collaborating with the Ministry of Women Affairs to ensure sanity in our state.”

  A  new experimental brain implantation device, Blindsight, designed to restore vision has been awarded the US Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) ‘breakthrough device’ designation.

Blindsight is designed to allow individuals who have lost both eyes and optic nerves to regain sight. On Tuesday, in a post made on X announcing the new development, Elon Musk said Blindsight can help blind people regain their sight as long as their virtual cortex is still intact.

New Mexico City Launches Ten Commandments, Ask Residents To Help Pay Legal Fees

The city of Bloomfield, New Mexico, put up an illegal Ten Commandments monument outside of a municipal building. It was put up for religious reasons in 2011. Multiple courts ruled the monument to be unconstitutional. Despite this, city officials fought back while the ACLU told them it would be unwise to do so as the law is clear on the issue. In February 2018, they could not file any more appeals which meant they owed the ACLU $700,000. In June, a proposed budget was released taking the major payment into account.  The budget shows that the city estimates $12.5 million in revenue while the 2019 preliminary fiscal year budget called for $12.2 million in expenditures and for the payment of $233,000 towards the Ten Commandments lawsuit. The city was also given the option of whether they’d like to pay the entire amount by 2021 or make three payments. The city chose to make payments, which means that 1.9% of the city’s budget will be spent paying off their legal bills. Many people do
