The Lagos State Police Command has saved a one-month-old female child who was abandoned at the junction of a popular petrol station, Orile Bus Stop, Lagos.

Time was about 8am on Friday, when the baby was sighted by some passers-by who alerted the Police operatives attached to Orile Division before she was rescued and handed over to the Gender Unit of the Lagos State Police Command, Ikeja.

It was gathered that the baby was taken to the office of the Commissioner of Police, Lagos State, Hakeem Odumosu, by the Officer in charge of the Gender Unit where the CP directed that the baby be accorded proper medical attention and taken to a government accredited shelter (facility) for custody and proper care.

Odumosu reassured members of the public that the command will continue to work with all relevant government agencies and interest groups in fighting against this inhumane act and other social vices in Lagos State.
