The baby who is about one year old is named Elijah Egbejimba.<\/p>\n<p>When Umuaka Times visited the family last week, it was discovered that findings carried out so far show that the 13 month old baby is in dare need of an urgent medical attention.<\/p>\n<p>Last week, Umuaka Times contacted Professor Kingsley Obioha for urgent medical advice on the case and he has so far advised the parents of the sick baby to seek more advanced medical attention.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17024\"
