As shared on Twitter and stipulated in Section 277 of the Criminal Law of Lagos state, it is a criminal offence for a man to desert a woman he impregnated.

For the violent husband or wife, Section 19 of the Violence Against Persons Act 2015 states:

 A person who batters his or her spouse commits an offence and is liable on conviction to a term of imprisonment not exceeding 3 years or to a fine not exceeding N200, 000 or both.”

good move. enough of women killing their babies over uncertainties. someone got them pregnant and abandoned them but people only criticize the woman. I hope this will put an end to cases of abandoned babies.
