A three-month-old baby abandoned in front of a college in Anambra State, has been picked up by a good Samaritan.

The baby was abandoned in front of the Oraukwu Boys Technical College in Idemili North Local Government Area of the state.

The police spokesperson in the state, Tochukwu Ikenga, disclosed this in a statement on Tuesday.

Mr Ikenga, a superintendent of police, said the man who picked up the baby brought him to Eziowelle Divisional Police Headquarters.

Efforts to trace the baby’s parents or relatives have been unsuccessful, the police said.

“The police have handed over the baby to the Director of the Welfare Department Idemili North Local Government Area for safe custody,” Mr Ikenga said.

The police spokesperson urged residents who can assist the police in identifying the parents and reuniting the baby with the parents to visit the police facility.
