 A Missouri mom attempted to give her 3-year-old daughter a better life by abandoning her at a truck stop. The opener was tounge in cheek, but probably not far from the truth. What is even more disgusting is that when questioned, Kayla Christensen denied ever having a daughter.  This unbelievable act of parenting took place at Loves Travel Spot in Neosho, Missouri.  Employees luckily saw the sweet little 3-year-old girl looking lost, alone and devastated at 3 a.m. on October 23rd.

But the commissioner said the government had given an ample time to align with global best practices, noting that what is unacceptable elsewhere cannot become standard in Lagos.

“This is about environmental responsibility. And we have given an ample time to align with global best practices. What is unacceptable elsewhere cannot become standard in Lagos. We must protect our future and do what is right for the greater good.
