Since the incident ugly incident happened, there has been wide condemnation of the dastardly act by well meaning Nigerians, who decried the level of decadence in the society.

A Non-Governmental Organization, Women Arise for Change Initiative, has decried with great disdain how an infant was abandoned for three days in a pit toilet and called for Introduction of moral ethics in schools.

In a statement,  the group said:

“Women Arise for Change Initiative has condemned outrightly the abandonment of three days old baby in a toilet pit by her uncouncionable and callous mother in Otuocha in Anambra East LG”.

“The attitude of the wicked and devilish mother is insensate, inhuman, barbaric and worst man’s inhumanity against man.”

In the the same vein, Evangelist Comrade Vincent Ezekwueme, Chairman and Pastor Chinyere Amah, Secretary respectively said that “injustices done to one is injustices done to all”.

“We call on the education formulators to introduce without delay moral ethics in schools as the society, state and country is degenerating into decadent, putrefying, corrupt and moral bankrupt society.”

“It is an anathema, highly detestable and despicable that such impunity and iniquity took place in Anambra State dominated by Christians.”

“This is a clear indication that all is not well, hence the inevitable need for all hands to be on deck to inculcate moral rectitude, discipline, respect for human dignity, sanctity and sacredness of human life.”

“We commend wife of the Governor, Mrs. Nonye Soludo and Honourable Commissioner for Women and Children Affairs, Mrs. Ify Obinabo, for their prompt humanitarian disposition and interventions.”

“We call for urgent and immediate prosecution of the culprit to act as deterrent to others.”

“Parents, guardians and most importantly mother’s, should monitor and observe their daughters and female house helps and properly counsel and guide them in case of unwanted pregnancy” the group posited.

“Recall the assertion of Susan Callings that ‘anyone who kill an innocent person will lose anything he has and he is, hence the more innocent the baby is, the most sinful to kill him.

“Therefore, all hands must be on deck to inculcate the fear of God and moral rectitude in our youths in order to eradicate impunity and absurdity in the society and state” the group concluded.
