BRUTAL OUTCOME OF COVID ’19: NURSING MOTHERS NOW TURN NEIGHBORHOOD BEGGARS.

The hardship and pains brought about by the coronavirus epidemic has grown so brutal to the extent that nursing mothers with their babies strapped at their backs are now going from street to street, markets to markets begging for what to eat.

Our correspondent sighted some of these women, most of them in their middle ages in areas like Oregun, Ojodu, Ogba, Fagba, Agege, Abule Egba etc. The state of these women could be described as sympathetic as many of them have to perambulate through the scorching sun to solicit for money from the few passersby.

Reports have it that the husbands of most of these women are artisans and okada riders whose only means of making money rely solely on their daily activities and now that the stay at home order has prohibited them from going out and source for money for their families, the onus now lies on the wife to seek for other means. While some segment of the society vehemently condemned this act, some believe that it may be the only way out of hunger and deeper suffering pending the end if the Covid ’19 holiday.
