The Borno State Police Command has launched an investigation into the suspected infanticide of a newborn whose lifeless body was discovered in a pit toilet at the Kuya Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) Camp in Monguno.
Zagazola gathered reliably that the incident occurred on April 24, 2025, at about 0630hrs when the camp chairman, Faki Isa, reported the discovery. The newborn’s body was found in the toilet, and it is believed the baby may have been abandoned there by an unknown woman.
A team of investigators visited the scene, and the body was taken to the General Hospital Monguno, where it was confirmed dead by a medical doctor. The corpse was later released to the Kuya IDP Camp chairman for burial.
No arrests have been made so far, but the investigation is ongoing with efforts to trace the individual responsible for the crime.
