51-year-old woman, Rose Edward, is in police
net for allegedly buying a 2-month-old baby for
N450,000.
Cordelia Nwanwe, the Akwa Ibom Police
Command’s spokesperson, told journalists that a
homeopathic doctor, Eneyo Nyang, was arrested
in connection with the crime.
He said Ms. Edward, from Rivers State,
confessed to have bought the baby because she
needed a baby of her own..
Confessing to the crime, the mother of the baby,
Comfort Effiong, said she sold her baby because
there was no one to take care of her.
“I sold the baby because of help; I don’t have
anybody to help me. My father is late and my
mother is sick and I don’t have anybody to help
me,” Ms. Effiong said.
Mr. Mani assured Akwa Ibom people that the
command would not relent in its effort to curb
crime in the state. He warned members of the
public wishing to adopt children to follow due
process.by chibabynaija1
