Former Big Brother Naija housemate Uriel Oputa is receiving a lot of admiration from Nigerians after she publicly vowed to take in the abandoned baby girl who was found along a riverbank in Kogi State. The infant was discovered crying by a community leader within the area along the Niger Bridge in the Ajaokuta area, according to a viral video. The man was drawn to the site by the baby’s crying and was shocked to discover her all alone, lying in baby clothing and a wrapper, with other personal belongings by her side.
Omera Ugbede Opaluwa, a villager who posted the video on the web, also confirmed that the child was rescued and was being cared for by villagers pending further action by the local authorities. Reaching out to the tragic news on the comment section of a high-profile blog, Uriel Oputa was an emotional appeal to be granted custody of the child. She vowed to provide the baby with a home and a loving place where she would never experience the agony.
