Mentally challenged woman gives birth to baby boy in uncompleted building in Oyo

A mentally challenged woman in her 20s, has delivered a baby boy in Odo-Ona Apata in Ido Local Government Area of Oyo State.

The new mother, Lara, gave birth to her child in an uncompleted building at Ayileka street, behind Bova’s Petrol Station, Odo-Ona Apata.

A journalist who spoke with the woman revealed that she was not fluent in her speech, and this made it hard for concerned residents to get details about the man who is responsible for her pregnancy.

Reports also gathered that the incident had been reported at Odo Ona Apata Police Station, while the Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Welfare had also been contacted.

The mother and the child are doing well at a private hospital.
