A doctor wants to adopt an orphan girl after her parents died in an immigrant boat off the coast of Libya. "I want to keep her with me forever," said Doctor Pietro Bartolo. The 9 months old Nigerian girl touched the heart of the Italian Doctor, who was caring for her after he rescued her. The baby’s pregnant mother and father are believed to have died when the overcrowded boat capsized. A photo of the doctor with the baby went viral in Italy with many families making calls to adopt her. However, the baby will be transferred with dozens other survivors to Sicily where she will be taken by Child Care Center who will then transfer her to an Italian family. More pictures after the cut:
I have been reporting for several years now and I am very interested in visual news reportage with strong inclusion of photos and video multimedia.

l pray the little girl has a blessed life. But what evidence is there that she is Nigerian? Even the doctor is unsure of her origin. Secondly what were the parents running away from in Africa that they thought it SAFE to carry a baby through such hardship just to get to white mans land? I can understand the SYRIANS etc running away from war but most African nations are at peace. When will we stop running away from our own HOMEMADE POVERTY?
