A Cameroonian mother abandons her one-month-old baby while leaving a handwritten note on him explaining why she had to do what she did. As reported by MIMIMEFO, the baby was found in the early hours of Thursday near Mideno in the Ntefinki quarter, located in Nkwen, Bamenda, which is situated in the North West region of Cameroon. In a note found with the baby, the mother mentioned that she had no alternative but to abandon the baby since she lacked the means to care for it and had no one to depend on. Letter found on the abandoned baby “I am sorry I had to do this. I had no other choice cus I want my baby to live a happy life. “I have nothing; no one to help me and nothing to start a small business that can sustain the baby and me. “Please help me take good care of him and I pray God bless and grant your heart desires. The baby’s name is Migael and he was born on the 26 April 2023. He has taken his first vaccine which is “BCG” and is still to be circumcised. God bless you and your household. Thank You.” Founder of Reach Out Organisation whose collaborator found the baby said, “He was also taken to the hospital and medics confirmed he is safe and sound. We are now trying to see what to do.”
