Jezzz!...
ReplyDeleteMaybe that's how she eat too cos she is looking like an over bloated toad...
Chai poor baby!...
I wonder how the mother of the child is faring...
Its just a pity the baby had to die. May the child rest in peace.
DeleteI know this isn't the time but I actually laughed out loud on "over bloated toad" comment. Linda tho. Lol
Unfortunately this is how yoruba women feed their babies, I see them doing this on a daily basis and I get irritated, I've warned my mum not to try this with my kids o, I won't take such rubbish, even the ones they do while bathing, throwing the baby up and down, jeez!
DeleteBtw im Yoruba before you all will start screaming tribalist
Some babies are hard headed. If you like hold my sons nose from morning till night he won't open his mouth, even if he does he will clench his teeth.. lol
DeleteI was so inexperienced when I gave birth to my baby a lot of people offered to help bath n feed him, I refused God forbid! even when my folks came, I literally stood on their heads and ensured they didn't bring naija style to my house..
I hope grandma is released cause she def meant no harm..God save her🙏🏽🙏🏽
See her ugly looking face.... She thinks is Nigeria where she will get away
DeleteStella, if she actually RIPPED off the tip of the feeding bottle,it means there was malicious intent so stop defending evil!!!
DeleteDon't be silly!!! Why won't her comments be approved? Doesn't she look like an over bloated toad? Sm1s mother in deed! She just killed an innocent baby for no reason. Comment and leave Linda alone biko. That's how they complained and pursued JAMES.
DeleteOmg. So sad.
DeleteSo James is now a god on this blog. Is he feeding anybody here? So Stella shld not delete in appropriate comments in order to appease so called popular bvs. Rubbish... anyways queen and boss isn't a stable person so her comment cannot b taken seriously. Poor family and poor mama.
Delete@anon 12.34...What's wrong in warning ones mother? You Nigerians are so backwards...So Person can't speak he mind to parents..smfh.No wonder some parents keeps poke nosing into their kids who are adults affairs...

ReplyDeleteRip english!
DeleteHowever, it is not the right way to feed a child,particularly someone's child. This is sad.
DeleteMy boyfriend feeds me drug like that o, hold my nose and put the tablet with water when I open my mouth to breathe. That's the only way you can make me take medicines. Ill send him this link so he'll read this.
DeletePoor child, may God console her parents.
Anon. You still see am 😂 evul
DeleteYour name na sorry
DeleteRIP to the young one. I always find it distressing when naija women feed their children that way. It oft seems like you are punishing the child, now in this case it has resulted in death. She is going to jAil.
ReplyDeleteMe too! Force feeding has always been very distubing & no no for me! I hate it with my all!!! Now she will she charged with murder! Now will she be able to argue it out in court that she used "Naija style of feeding toddlers who refused to eat"? I doubt that, so sad!
Delete... Jesus is my worth!
Pls specify biko not all Nigerian women mbok just say uneducatedYoruba women cos thats the way they feed their babies.abum onye igbo we don't feed our babies like that.
DeleteThank you
I just hope Queen of the Bus stop sees the severity of this situation and tries not to abuse the tribe the nanny is from.
ReplyDeleteShut up!...
DeleteBut you don't see reasons when your tribe abuse igbos abi...
Ene nwanyi, ggbachi ewu ahu Nkiru. Atarom ife takpoo ya anya. Rip to the baby though and the lady looks like a frog. How could you suffocate a baby in the name of feeding bikonu? Who the hell hired her? Lee kwanu ozodimgba.
DeleteRip to the dead baby. Nanny why did you allow witches from your village to follow you down there. Maybe she was doing it in good faith so the baby could eat not knowing that our Nigerian babies are akpuruka compared yo their oyibo counterparts.
ReplyDeletethat was exactly what came to mind when I read it. you cant compare naija pikin with oyibo pikin at all.
DeleteI don't know why but this photo makes me feel so sorry for her.
ReplyDeleteI don't think she meant to harm the child. May God console the parents of the baby.
Exactly Dopple, she meant no harm, she just wanted to make sure the baby eat. This is how Yoruba parents esp grannies. Have been feeding babies since time immemorial. I feel so sorry for her.
DeleteI feel so bad for her,she didn't mean to. I feel so bad for her,she didn't know any better. Almost all of us where fed this way. Kia poor family of d child poor mama too
DeleteI have penned her name down and I will keep interceding on her behalf until her release. I pray the victims parents withdraw the case.
DeletePoor woman, God should please show her mercy.
I just don't know why this story hurts me so much.
We take our freedom for granted.
Even if the kids parents wanted to withdraw the case, there is no way to withdraw this case. It's the state against the defendant. For Gods sake someone died here. She will surely go to trial.
DeleteIt's just ridiculous to force feed a child. If your child refuses food, leave the child to get really hungry and the child will eat. A child will not starve itself. My daughter has gone a whole day without eating and after that day she eats Like a horse. If you try every thing and your child still won't eat then see a paediatricIan.
This is a mistake she will have to pay for unfortunately. She is unlikely to get a long sentence if she has a good lawyer. God help her.
It'll be another issue of she isn't a licensed nanny. She prolly went to the U.S to do omugwo for her own children and decided to earn an extra income by baby sitting for others. I hope this isn't the case cos she'll put her people in trouble too. So sad
DeleteAhhhh Jesus Christ and to think this is how I fed my kids throughout their infancy. It's just impatience, the woman must have miscalculated her timing. RIP lil angel
ReplyDeleteFor the life of me I just can't use that style, hubby will be like feed her like that but I just can't.
DeleteYes she must have miscalculated. I fed by first son like that after I stopped exclusive breast feeding and he refused eating. She must have miscalculated. You allow the child breath at intervals. You close the nose for a very very short period
DeleteRip to the child. ..
Nigerian woman,and i just checked her name...
ReplyDeleteYou are a waste of space !! Did you exchange your brain for porridge? Ewu.
DeleteSome mothers self get mind.
ReplyDeleteSee who them give pikin?
LMAO 😁
Deletewhen you find yourself in situations abroad where you have to work and everybody around you too, you will let anobody babysit for you. This is a very unfortunate situation. I feel all involved cos mama thought she was doing good as per naija mama that she is. RIPP to the baby.
DeleteEya.
ReplyDeleteEwoooooooo, she carry yoruba style of feeding enter US??
ReplyDeleteE don be for you madam.
Pls US government, she has witnesses to prove she meant no harm, come to Nigeria and see how it's done pls...that food must go down whether the baby likes it or not...lmao
my dear Pipi, dem no go hear dt excuse o. A Ghanaian Lady went to jail like dt here when she fed her baby in thesame way and the baby suffocated and died. Oyibo refused to hear her excuse o. Maybe they will consider mama's age. poor soul.
DeleteEh yaaaa @ anon...I feel so sorry for her.
DeleteReally sad.
DeleteMoms had better stop that method of forcing a child to eat.
ReplyDeleteSo as we dey nanny matter, My People who have people taking care of thr kids, it's not about installing cameras. Pls I beg you PRAY PRAY, am not talking abt Sunday morning prayers. I found out my nanny was attacking my children tru the dream. Ths girls is a very quiet girl, I never for once saw her raise her voice on my kids, she was very patient with them, aaah I thought I don hit jackpot, but she was evil. I quietly send her home jeje. I took them for deliverance. If not for God. Pls o pray. Midnight prayer, all. I just do what I can and get my hubby to help out more. And then again, I felt I had a 7yr old that would tell me anything even when I leave them and go out. But that's the one she was trying to initiate in the dream. We are more concerned abt the nanny not kidnapping kids and all but eeh.
ReplyDeleteReligion is the bane of the black man. Your English is passable hence I assume you are educated. However your comment sends shivers down my spine. Your silly dream made you act with no concrete physical evidence. Shame on you.
DeleteSerena
You're a fool,that is the same way someone will dream about you in an evil way.
DeleteThis is ridiculousness in HD. I'm absolutely speechless...
DeleteSo basically you assumed she was assaulting your kids? Cos I can't see any proof. I hope nobody has a silly dream about you and believes it too. Sometimes dreams are just that. Everything doesn't have to be spiritual.
DeleteAnon 12:10 chai!!!
DeleteKwakwakwakwa....
I am died*
Who leaves their child with someone this ugly? Mtchw! Even her face is enough to make anyone loose their appetite.
ReplyDeleteMay the baby rip.
May god forgive u. And I pray u never see a circumstance that will make ur life ugly. If not,u will cry till ur eyes av no tears... And u will forget u called someone who dint offend u ugly.

ReplyDeleteSo you just brought someone to your home without knowing the kind of person she is spiritually?...
DeleteSo people like you still dey?...

ReplyDeleteOh no! I feel sorry for the woman already. She took Nigerian style of feeding babies to the abroad..
ReplyDeleteOh no! I feel sorry for the woman already. She took Nigerian style of feeding babies to the abroad..
ReplyDeleteOh no! I feel sorry for the woman already. She took Nigerian style of feeding babies to the abroad.. May the small girl rest in piece,hmm
ReplyDeletePeace! Peace!! Peace!!! Madam! Hian! U still wan cut d corpse to pieces?

ReplyDeleteAdetutu,me too I know how to feed baby that way but I cannot try it with a stranger baby here talkless of abroad baby.
ReplyDeleteheya i pity her sha..... constant visitor but rarely make comments.
ReplyDeleteOh dear nanny.i know u mearnt well for d baby using naija method of feeding infant but guess u lost concerntration in ur timing with her nose holding.well rip lil angel.so so sorry about d death of the baby.naija mothers pls lets stop dat method oh.dis is a lesson for all.
ReplyDeleteChoi.......i hate forcefeeding,may God help this woman out of this!
ReplyDeleteEeeeeya.i think it was accidental.she never set out to hurt the child. Poor parents! They must be soo torn!RIP baby! Such a tragedy.
ReplyDeleteBikonu,can't be explained to the judge that she used the Naija method to feed the child?Chaii,she meant well o.
ReplyDeleteRIP lil angel.
Which 1 b Naija style?
DeleteYoruba style mbok
DeleteAmacastel just shut up! Irritant. Btw i'm not yoruba
DeleteIt is well!
ReplyDeleteThis is an innocent mistake;if only the judge would undastand that its an act performed where she hail from.
ReplyDeleteRest in peace lil angel.
Pls you guys stop saying Naija method...it's only a particular tribe that practices this, not the whole Country...
ReplyDeleteChai you lie. Force feeding isn't particular to any tribe. It is done to kids especially those that don't like food. It is crude method but you can't tribalise dis. Even your mum wld have done it to you if u didn't like food as a child.
DeleteGod bless u. One idiot up dia was saying dey call it aboki style. Which aboki hav u eva seen feedin dia lil ones lyk dat?
DeleteY u are the bigger liar is only Yorubas that feed their children liquid pap dt way pls I am igbo we don't feed our baby that way we handle our newborn babies like egg.mbok.
DeleteLord have mercy. See as she take kill person pikin
ReplyDeleteThis is not a forgive matter. She may have meant no harm but a crime was committed and she will have to do the time. This is a lesson to all mothers. If you still do not grasp the enormity of what has occurred spend sometime away from blogs and look up the anatomy of the respiratory and digestive system and how aspiration and death can occur with this unhealthy and very dangerous method.
ReplyDelete#speak up#
It's not the nannys fault and she didn't kill the baby on purpose. My elder sister almost lost her baby. Infact her baby died if not for the aunt is a prayer warrior... She started praying seriously and baby jerked back to life. Force feeding kill babies fast.
ReplyDeletethe best na for women to stay at home and take care of their children
ReplyDeleteDid she actually passed through d 9months journey @ all?
ReplyDeleteRIP beautiful soul
God, please grant d parent d strength to move forward n surround their table with uncountable children.....Amen!!!
@anon 13:28 If you know anything about force feeding you would know that the food won't go in through the tiny holes on the bottle tip which made her rip it off.
ReplyDeleteThis actually got to me because i am guilty of this...though mine is drugs not food. I did it when my son was ill and refused taking his drugs, I couldn't find his medicine drops abi na dropper and he was really sick so i felt it was the right way. I did it twice and then i discovered a new method (pressing his mouth open). seeing this now shows me that the two times I tried it was twice too many. forgive me my darling, I won't ever do it again. RIP little one.
OMG. Poor woman. I am sure she meant no harm. But that method is way outdated. Na wa.

Thanks madam ify, I loaded the recharge card. God bless you greatly in Jesus name. The Lord will grant your heart desires more than you expect in Jesus name.
DeleteAbeg I wan ask, what's the alternative for pikin wey no wan chop? So I don't make this mistake..
ReplyDeleteThe alternative is to give the child as much as he would take and let him be. When he's hungry, he would eat. Then breastfeed for up to 24 months if you can. If the child is not taking food, you can at least be sure then breastmilk in his tummy.
DeleteIt's unfortunate the baby died,i hate that way of feeding babies or giving them drugs.every tribe does it both yoruba,igbo,hausa etc it's nt a good way nd i never did that to my kids bcos it scares me d baby might suffocate.its an eye opener sha
ReplyDeleteMy method as a mother was to be patient nd feed gradually even if it's medicine.we shouldn't hurry when talking care of children they re so delicate nd can be irritating.
ReplyDeleteWell. What can one say, pretty sure she couldn't have meant direct harm. That is where she works, and that's her means of livelihood too. She probably has a family she is raising too. To the parents of the child, one can only commiserate with them as it is an avoidable loss. To us all, may no unpleasant accident or circumstance come our path.
