Tragedy struck on Friday in Asaba, Delta State, when a 37-year-old house wife, Maureen Akowe, a graduate of sociology from the state-owned university allegedly lost her four-month-old baby to her dog.

It was gathered that the four- month-old baby was driven in the mother’s car alongside the dog to a popular supermarket along Okpanam Road, Asaba, where the house wife had gone for shopping for the baby’s upkeep.

Report says the unsuspecting nursing mother left the baby, a nanny and the dog inside the car and wound down the windows to allow ventilation into the car before moving into the supermarket.

LEADERSHIP Sunday gathered from witnesses that while she was busy shopping, the dog allegedly made straight for the little baby to eat her up while the nanny screamed for help but all to no avail.

The shouts by the nanny attracted two security personnel at the supermarket to the car but by which time the baby, identified as Chinonso, had been bitten severally on the stomach by the dog, leaving the baby in a pool of blood.

The dog had gone wild and was barking menacingly to scare onlooker by the time the baby’s mother got wind of the development and rushed to the scene.

The baby was taken to a nearby hospital along Nnebisi Road, but it was too late by the time they got to the hospital as the baby, the woman’s first child, had already died.

the efforts of the helpers who had wanted to rescue the little baby failed as the baby gave up the ghost before getting to the hospital.



Speaking with the nanny who claimed to have hailed from one of the states in the eastern part of the country and did not want her name in the print said “Madam carry the dog and baby and asked us to stay inside the car, because the dog was to be treated at the veterinary, suddenly I saw the dog moving closer to the baby and I shouted for help when the dog opened its teeth and I ran out of the car to call madam but she did not come on time”.



Family sources said that the house wife had been married for 3 years without a baby before she took in for the baby that was delivered and named Chinonso.



In a swift reaction, the husband of the woman amidst tears, and did not want his name on the print said “my wife said it is the devil’s work and the devil’s work will take her out of my house, I have warned her about the dog when I notice that the dog had been behaving funny. She still kept carrying the dog claiming that she was going to give treatment to the dog. This is how the devil had ruined her”.

Sometimes its difficult to actually forgive painful experiences, but when u eventually do truly forgive it makes you a better person and free of bitterness, even a happier person.

First it was an NYSC experience and u should thank God you came out alive. Forget what happened.

Your sister's happiness should be priority. Put hate aside and see him as a fellow man and not a soldier in the camp. You die gradually when you hate someone but live longer when you share love.

You never know, you might have things in common and help each other in the future.

God Never makes mistakes when it comes to people crossing each other's paths.

My thoughts though. I wish your sister a happy married life.

A man that can provide for his family and leave an inheritance for his children

It is a wa o

E no easy, sponsors wanted.

If this is true, please return the money first, all other things can follow.

No. I can't

chinnyonwu:
You are not entitled to a silly opinion on this forum.

Thanks for letting me know how silly I am. Please kindly beat the women in your life, it will do you a lot of good.
Have a wonderful day.

lakamua:
this statement is getting stale. Who cares what u hate

You do care. How are you?

I really dislike men who, for whatever reason, raise their hands on women, wife or friend.

And it was posted to BH via...

Could fool anyone with the facials though, but what about finger prints? Just asking.

This group of people dey get stronger o

you never start. when you remove WO u go know say na MAN get the list

SAMBARRY:
Only in nigeria you see nonsense like this

no wonder a 37 year old grown man will still be staying under his parents roof and be asking for food and money shamelessly
No wonder you will see some hungry hawks ready to take advantage of her naievity when the parents will not allow her to grow up

And you think 20years is the right enough to be on your own? Facebook chatting is a way to allow her grow up?

The countries where you think at 37 years a man should be independent, take a good look at their environment (infrastructure and such) and what is going on the life of 50 percent of the youths, then you can draw a line between our rich cultural heritage and family values and theirs.

A visit will convince you. Don't believe the wild lies of 18yrs is self independent

tinziemaine:
we are not going well we don't talk anymore I don't understand if it temptation or how is suppose to be

Do you really love her? Not being infatuated or thinking you do, but being sure you really, deep down love her.
If your answer is yes, then give a little time and visit her. A lot is going thru her mind that she cant say to you.
you have to first realize you have taken a priceless gift from her, show her some respect, let her know you are ready to listen when she feels like talking.
On the other hand check the way you behave around her and your utterances when you are both alone.
Let her know you think the world about her.
Relationship is a give and take, not take, take, take.
Don't push it, respect her.

Tomorrow you will want a virgin to marry and you will be screaming teamvirgin.

on the other hand @lawnreigh will want to know why girls lie about how they lost their virginity.

Bros you don't need advice you need Jesus.

Please ZIP UP until the right time. If you cant stand the heat stay out of the kitchen.

And what did your girlfriend do about it?

I suggest u stand your ground and address that issue. Her mother calling you that name and her daughter doing or saying nothing about it, makes you just a replacement of the real thing and if u get married you will be something to fill the gap.

Please make sure she is actually over IT (her ex) before you get married. Not one day you come back home and find stories that touch the heart then we start again with "My Wife Brought her Ex Home what should I do"

on the other hand you have not been fully accepted by the family.

So, Stand your ground brother. HML

tpiander:
why is she blabbing about her dad's instructions?

Are you the person she's chatting with?

good question, probably the chatting takes so much of time that she is not focused and will do the wrong things when sent on errands or worst still not helping with chores in the house, chatting can be addictive and distracting.

Young lady as long as you are under my roof I own everything you do.

We quickly forget the case of Cynthia, she is older than your friend and is dead, but the pain, emptiness and the fight to bring her murderers to book is carried on by the parents.

Social media has its advantage and disadvantage and parents have that duty to look out for u, it might seem hash but many years from now you will look back and thank them for guiding u.

Your friend should first obey and then talk with dad to know his reasons for asking her to stop FB chats and try to prevail on him.

Remember that honoring your father and mother is the first commandment that attracts a gift... LONG lIFE

Thank God he does not like money. Pls join me as we visit him to sign blank cheques and make sure he has nothing left in his bank account(s).

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.

Behold yourself
