That is why it is necessary to check critically into the extent to which the number of babies absorbs in the motherless baby homes within the Holy child motherless babies home Enugu.
1.1 BACKGROUNG OF STUDY
The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), Joint United Nations Program On HIV And AIDS(UNAIDS) has labeled any child that has lost one or both parent as an orphan. In this approach, a maternal orphan is a child whose mother has died, and a paternal orphan is a child whose father has died, and a double orphan has lost both parents.
Orphans are relatively rare in developed countries of the world, because most children can expect both of their parents to survive their childhood. Much higher number of orphans exist in war-torn nations such as Afghanistan, Somalia, Ukraine and in other cases part of some nations like Maiduguri state in Nigeria.
The city of Abuja holds a population estimated to be about 11 million people and about 9% of its overall population are considered to be orphans most of which resides in satellite towns around the main central business district (i.e central area). Among such satellite towns is Gwagwalada which accounts for about 12,000 orphans roaming its streets and highways (Lolo African Children’s Foundation, 2013). Densely populated in areas like Dagiri, Kutunku, Angwadodo, and Park road.
With only 3 orphanages to boast of in the town , the question that comes to mind next are, were do these orphans stay?, how do they even survive?,what is the society or orphanages doing to arrest the situation? And lastly, what are the causes of these child neglect or abandonment.
1.2 STATEMENT OF RESEARCH
With careful observation and examination of the state of affairs of the orphans around Gwagwalada area council, a certain phenomenon has been revealed and this basis of this research.
Although orphans in the Gwagwalada area have been identified in different ways by members of the community. This has had a great impact on the state of affairs in the area council security wise and economically.
Over the years orphans as well as other street children have suffered neglect from the government. This can be due to the fact that the they are seen as been useless.
However, this has not help the cause of helping out orphans in the area council. This has led to the increase of orphans on the streets of the area. And with low level of facilities and accommodation in orphanages around the area council, less number of orphans are admitted into orphanages.
