"In the absence of any person claiming custody on the basis of being the natural father"
If the natural father wants custody he will be granted rights (might be joint, shared) depending on the welfare of the child whether he is married to the mother or not

papyjaypaul: NL will not allow me post a picture because of the daily limits. There is a picture on this post that explains what you wrote here. We need to adjust what we think is modernism, it is not helping society at all.
Most feminist are with their man for a reason.
Most baby mama have their mother or parents helping.
The misled jump in and cannot cope, they are in uncharted territory.
They dont know what to do and all of a sudden they are alone.
Dont folllow anybody, follow Jesus because his way will never mislead you.

For them to find out, u can imagine the type of Cry the baby would have cried.
It was heartless, even if she did not go to that work, the hospital can manage, they normally have more nurses than they actually need, sitting around in the reception gossiping.
This was a poor judgement call and Nigeria need to build a community where ever they go regardless of tribe.
The community should even grow to a Black Community, including non Nigerians.
If Black people or Nigerians dey cordinate and leave wickedness, as she get job , person wey no get job can just be looking aftre the babay and collecting salary from there.
Tat is how community work but i guess Black have not exist long enough to reach community stage.
All we can do with each other is fight , even online.
The bible said the Love of money is the root of all evil.
As a nurse, she is suppose to be on maternity leave for 12 months. So, what is the rush to return back to work?
There are many Nigerians in that UK that she can leave the baby with to return to work but because black people are always dividing themselves for no reason, things that shouldnt be a problem is now a problem.
when we tell them come let us be a community, everybody want to do their own thing, does that make any sense to you?
When we tell them, all of them seem to know better and comedian.
Just know that baby is gone forever.
Those white were already looking for excuse to steal the baby and hand to their people that can't have kids to raise for them.
White people raising Black baby to be a coconut or bounty chocolate.
If you are complaining about few communities in Anambra that are mixed with Igbo speaking Igala, then what do u expect Igbo people to do where they have entire local government areas in Kogi that are Igbos?
Igbo that were delibrately taken to Kogi to make us look smaller.
The indigenous ndi Igbo that are inhabitants in Kogi state, occupies Kogi East which is by far the most populated and the largest by its land mass. They are found under these local government areas: 1. Akpanya They are under the Igalamela/Odolu Local Government Area which shares boundary with Enugu state in the east and Niger River in the west. With 95% of the locals speaking Igbo and the remaining 5 percent are conversant with the Igala native tongue. Some of the Igbo natives who have converted to Muslims are majorly found in this community. 2:Nwajala It is made up of other communities like; Umuoye, Ubulie-Umueze in Ibaji LGA, in the south of Kogi state. The community is separated from Edo State by the Niger River. 3. Ebokwe It consists of communities like; Amaeke, Amadiefoha, Amankpo, Amauwanu camp, Amaufulu, which are all under Igalamela/Odolu LGA. EkeAvurugo The people of EkeAvurugo are under Ibaji Local Government Area, they are bilingual as they speak Igbo as a first language and Igala as a second language, this is as a result of living together with the Igalas. 5. Onicha-Igo This is a community in Ofu LGA that is located in the central part of Kogi State. They are indigenous Igbo-speaking natives. 6. The Odolu Community The people in Odolu community are also bilingual but in their case, the predominant language is Igala while the Nsukka Igbo tongue is adopted as their second language. Being a minority ethnic group has not stopped the indigenous Igbos from living their lives like every other person in the state. They are recognized for their agricultural prowess and as traders who sells off products from their harvest. They have four (4) market days which are, Eke, Oye, Afor, and Nkwo, just like the Igalas.Due to modernization, some of them have left farming to other trades like that of Spare parts of vehicles to other merchandise and are dominating the market exceptionally well, thereby contributing their quota to the economic growth of the state. In terms of politics, they are given the right to exercise their franchise just like every other person residing in Kogi state, regardless of their ethnicity. The present deputy governor of the state in the person of Edward David Onoja is from an Igbo speaking community, Odidoko-Emonyoku in Ogugu District, to be precise. The indigenous Igbo communities still uphold their culture and traditional values as their brothers and sisters in the Eastern part of Nigeria. Some of their cultural practices are similar to that of the Igala natives. For instance, the Ofala festival that is used to commemorate the Kingship of the Obi and New Yam Festival has peculiarities to the Ata coronation of the Igala kingdom.
As they both entail music and dance as they celebrate, symbolism which is evident in their traditional regalias (eagle feathers on their caps represent strength, the horse tail, and a machete in their hands) there is also the breaking of kola nut which signifies peace and oneness, and the use of masquerades to add color to the day.
In those same town, you have Igbo being spoken too.
The same is the case in Kogi, a mixture of Igbo and their Igala brothers.
You can walk from where Igala is spoken and the next village will be speaking Igbo, just like that and often the people can speak both Igbo and Igala in all the vilages in Kogi and Anambra.
You cannot separate them with border, due to mixture.
Calitoscassius: I agree with the irish, she should go and contest in Naigeria, anyway, no Irish person will vote for her. She will lose. Why did she even accept the nominations?
In far away Europe they are voting for people not based on race but competance.
Ireland can vote for her, they normally do, not all their politicians are Irish white people, some are Black and Indians.
In this case, Igbo must go just has to be replied, so they can also dance to it in Ireland.
U see wen i knew Nigeria was done, is when South Africans started correcting Yoruba men and calling them tribalist bigot.
U can imagine they went to tell South Africans to kill Igbos and the South Africans replied we just want to kill Nigerians and dont nother us with your tribal nonsense.
plaetton: If true. The so-called lawsuit is frivolous and won't see the light of day in a courtroom. Abike, no matter her prejudices, was acting in the public interest. Amaka's act of posting public threats in the category of hate crime, is a criminal offense under Canadian law. The fact that she has been criminally charged is the best evidence that Abike was acting in the public interest.
kingi777: I was shocked to hear fellow Nigerians calling on South Africans and other Africans to unite against Igbos. Earnestly, this inter ethnic hatred has gone out of hand and Nigerian government must find means to stop this.
The SA told dem to get lost.
Insulted them for being tribal bigots and called all of them Nigerians., stating they dont care about their tribes.
Isn't that funny?
U as a Nigerians, do u care about the SA tribes? A south African is a South African to you.
Likewise is a Indian or Chinese just that, because you actually see no difference. oir care·
