The NigeriaPolice Force (NPF) has launched an investigation into a disturbing viral video showing a woman feeding an alcoholic drink to a baby.
The footage, shared on X, formerly Twitter, by content creator Chuks Eric on Sunday, captures the unidentified woman holding a baby girl and pouring a sachet of Action Bitters, a popular alcoholic herbal drink, into the child’s mouth.
A caption overlaid on the video reads: “Every night just for her to sleep,” suggesting that the woman regularly gives the baby alcohol to induce sleep.
However, it remains unclear whether the child is her biological daughter.

In a statement released on Monday via X, the NPF condemned the act as “distressing” and emphasised that exposing a child to alcohol is both “illegal and dangerous”.
The police also called on the public for assistance, urging Chuks Eric and anyone with useful information to come forward.
“We are aware of this distressing video and are investigating urgently. Exposing a child to alcohol is illegal and dangerous,” the force said in the statement.
“We urge @ChuksEricE and any member of the public with valuable information that could lead to the swift apprehension of this “mother” to not hesitate to provide same.
“They can reach out to us on 09169967000. The child’s safety is our priority.”
