Mother Abandons Her Newborn Baby With A Sorrowful Handwritten Note
In a rather sad development, a yet-to-be identified mother has reportedly abandoned her newborn baby with a heart-breaking handwritten note.
The baby boy was found in the wee hours of Thursday, May 4, 2023, beside MIDENO in Nkwen, Bamenda, North, North West region of Cameroon.
According to a source who spoke with newsmen:
“The baby was discovered around 6:00am. After notifying the quarter head and other authorities, the child was taken to the Health Centre where he was confirmed to be doing well in health.”
The baby has reportedly been taken to the police station for further procedures on his welfare.
In the handwritten note which showed the mother’s despair and hopelessness, she revealed that the child’s name is Migael, born on April 26th 2023, and further disclosed other details about his health status.
She stated that she had no choice but to abandon her baby in the hope that a good Samaritan would find him.
She added that she doesn’t have money or the resources to care for the child, so she had to make the hard decision to leave him so he would have a chance at a better life.

The note reads:
“I am sorry I had to do this. I had no other choice because I want my child 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 I.
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 and is still to be circumcised. God bless you and your household. Thank you.”
