A chilling incident has left the community of Suswam, Nigeria, in mourning and disbelief after the horrifying discovery of a three-month-old infant’s mutilated body by the roadside near Suswam Thank You Primary School. The grim find, reported by local resident Tartenger, has sparked outrage and calls for justice and moral renewal.
According to Tartenger’s emotional post, the baby’s tiny body was found with its hands and legs severed, dumped in a condition that defies comprehension. Overwhelmed by the graphic nature of the scene, Tartenger refrained from sharing video or photographic evidence, citing fears of social media censorship. “But God knows, what I saw today is something I will never forget. I’m still shaking as I type this,” they wrote.
The incident, which occurred in broad daylight near a school and close to Tartenger’s shop, has raised alarming questions about the state of humanity. “How did we get here as human beings? What kind of heart can do this to an innocent child who has never offended anyone? This is not just wickedness — it’s pure evil,” the post read. Tartenger urged the community to awaken to the urgent need for moral rebirth and called on parents, teachers, religious organizations, community leaders, and government authorities to address the growing concern for children’s safety.
In a plea for collective action, Tartenger emphasized the need to break the silence on such atrocities. “We can no longer stay silent while evil walks freely among us. We must cry out for justice and ask God to heal this land,” they stated. The post concluded with a prayer for the innocent soul, the child’s family, and the nation, asking for the restoration of love, conscience, and moral values.
Local resident Jennifer Ilawu echoed the sentiment, commenting, “A little baby — barely up to three months old — was discovered in the most heartbreaking condition. The child’s tiny body had been horribly mutilated; the hands and legs were cut off and dumped right there by the roadside.”
As the community grapples with this tragedy, authorities have yet to release an official statement. The incident has ignited a wave of sorrow and demands for a thorough investigation to bring the perpetrators to justice. For now, the people of Suswam are left to mourn and reflect on the urgent need for change.
