The new-born girl who was abducted from the Barnor Hospital at Laterbiokorshie in Accra a day after her birth two weeks ago has been reunited with her parents.<\/p>\n
The baby, the hospital authorities said, was abandoned in a flower pot at the hospital at 4 a.m. yesterday wrapped in the same cot sheet in which she had disappeared. Her abductor(s), in a bid to disguise her, gave her a haircut and also removed her earrings.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe feel relieved to have our daughter back and we know it\u2019s a miracle that has the hand of God written all over it,\u201d an overwhelmed Mr. Mike Sefa Kissi, the baby\u2019s father, told the Daily Graphic. \u201cWe give the glory to God. It is an attestation that we serve a great God and He will never abandon us in our moment of need,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
According to him, \u201cdue to the circumstances surrounding the conception and birth of the child, the family was of the belief that nothing could happen to her because we serve a living God.\u201d
When the Daily Graphic arrived at the hospital, it was a sight of spontaneous jubilation as the church and family members of the Medical Director, Dr. Aramansah Barnor Forjoe, arrived in their numbers singing and dancing to the glory of God.<\/p>\n
A visibly elated Dr. Forjoe, clad in white, with a handkerchief in hand, told the Daily Graphic, \u201cI feel vindicated and I give all the glory to God, for He has answered all our prayers and intercessions\u201d.
\u201cI have children of my own and I know how it feels not knowing the whereabouts of your child. I woke up every morning with a knot in my stomach and not knowing how to approach the issue. But God knew best,\u201d she exclaimed.<\/p>\n
She said to ensure that the baby was well, she would be sent to the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital for a thorough check-up and a DNA test.
\u201cWe do not know where she was taken to or what she was fed with, so it is important that we take all the precautions to ensure that nothing untoward happens,\u201d Dr. Forjoe said.<\/p>\n
Narrating the events leading to the finding of the baby, she said early in the morning of yesterday, a taxi arrived with a patient and the security officer on duty had to open the gate to let the patient in. \u201cWhile he was stepping out to go back to his duty post, it started drizzling and so he sat on one of the chairs. A few minutes later, he heard the scream of a baby outside and went to find out what was happening. Lo and behold, it was the baby,\u201d an excited Dr Forjoe said, beaming with smiles.<\/p>\n
The baby was said to have disappeared from the hospital, allegedly stolen by an old lady who had been seen lurking around for three continuous days under the guise of visiting a patient. The woman allegedly vanished after the disappearance of the baby. The Daily Graphic of yesterday reported that Mr. Kissi had threatened legal action against the hospital for neglect.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
