Who will take care of the child?

Joromi12:
Why share the pics

gabito4luv:
My dear NLders. Please your advice and guidance is needed once again. I lost a dear friend and colleague last Dec. He was involved in an accident with his wife (see previous link)https://www.nairaland.com/4914859/how-one-plan-funeral-close#74038218. Six months after the burial his family has refused to release the only child from the union to the young widow. All efforts to settle the matter within the family amounted to an exercise in futility. We have contacted the Min of women affairs in Benin but they haven't done anything yet. The lady who is yet to fully recover (bedridden) from the accident is really saddened by this development. Right now she has run out of ideas on where to seek help. Her current state of health isn't helping matters. Anyone with info on how to reunite mother and child kindly give your suggestions here.

PS. The child is only 2.

OneKinGuy:
The child belongs to the woman.They no dey debate that one. First she has to fully recover. If by any case the child is being maltreated or abused, Then it should. e reported the the child be moved away ASAP.


I wish her full recovery.

UjuJoan2:


I believe her family members are the ones taking care of her now. And they can as well take care of the child too.

gabito4luv:
thanks for the advice. But is it possible they'd take the child out of the country?

Cioccolata:
She is bedridden.
She should fight for her health.

Only the living can take care of the living.

Lalasticlala, my sensei, help a brother out.

UjuJoan2:


Having that child with her will fasten her healing process.

gabito4luv:
YES

femi4:
abi o.... i don't know how the pics are related to the recovery of the child

phineas:
Since she is alive she is the legal guardian.

She should file and sue specific persons in his family for kidnapping join everyone to the suit. AG.. Naptip. women affairs..her doctors . Minister of health.

Make sure they get arrested first so it's established as a criminal case.

I believe the sentence is now death.They should take it seriously thereafter.

She must do this quietly and quickly. Cut all ties with them in the process and show no mercy till they return the child and vacate her life.

babyfaceafrica:
she will do all these from her sick bed abi?..

AmazingELixir:


OP is the widow in a good and mental and financial state to cater for the child...

It's an unfortunate situation she found herself but it is equally important that logic and reason prevail..as it stands now so many indigent parents are raising touts and delinquents terrorising us every day.

gabito4luv:
I'm sorry if the pics is quite offensive but this is a serious matter and would not wish anyone to doubt. I had to live out the one where my friend was still alive in hospital bed with stitches all over.

2mch:
What are people saying she is bedridden so she should forget her child? A little child of 2? Even seeing the child will help her healing process. What if one bastard is abusing the child where they kept her.
She may be bedridden but she is still a mother and she loves her child. She is also alive so there is no reason why anyone should hold onto her child. Please go to media houses and appeal to the state government for help. May God punish those who seek to make this lady die from frustration and pain. Nigerians always feeling they know best for someone else. On something that is not their life experience.

She cant take care of the child...


For now

phineas:


Yes all that's needed is her signature and a good lawyer

Forgot this stupid comments on nairaland. Only her and a judge has the right to decide the child's well being.

The only condition medically allowed to separate a child from its mother can only be decided by a competent medical team

As I said earlier get a good lawyer file your case. Let the system sort out the rest. Don't forget to join the commisoner of police in the state ,the IGP and the Attorney General for traction. All the best

2mch:

What gives you the right to tell her that she cannot take care of her child? Even blind and mad people take care of their children. The woman said she wants her child, giver her the child. With her husband dead, that child will be the only source of her happiness.

I am sure it is the man’s mother holding on to that child as a memory for the loss of her child. But she’s not sympathetic towards another woman who needs her own child. Very wicked people.
