Photo: A day-old baby saved by Ogun community

After crying helplessly for nearly 24 hours inside
a soak away pit, a day old-baby was over the
weekend rescued from a pit in Olomore area of
Abeokuta North local government of Ogun state.
An eyewitness said that residents of Surulere
community in Olomore area of Abeokuta North
woke up to a cry of a little baby coming from a
soak away toilet behind a church in the area.
Residents said they'd heard the baby crying in
the early hours of Saturday morning but could
not link the cries to a particular direction.
However, later in the day, around 6pm, the baby’s
crying became more pronounced and they traced
it to a soak-away pit. There, they found the baby,
a boy, who was alive with his placenta uncut.

The pit slab cover had collapsed some years ago
and had not been replaced. The damaged slab
concrete saved the baby from going deep into the
soak-away pit. (Source - Telegraphng.com )

And some people don't believe in God!
