Mothers these days don't have any conscience.
This is because today's moms were brought up with Lactogen and NAN. They didn't get to take real breàst milk.
So it makes them reason like animals.

But I think the reason people steal and sell babies is because of the reduction in tribal marks.

This kinda news fills me with rage If a couple lacks financial means to adequately care for themselves talk-less of children, they shouldn’t bare children, yes none at all.

These kind of parents are grossly irresponsible, they don’t sit down to assess their finances. Struggle to barely feed themselves and their children, struggle to send them to school just to have their children lacking in one essential aspect of life or the other (clothing, upkeep etc); that is if education is on their agenda for the children.

These children didn’t ask to be born, why bring them to this world to suffer, this is wickedness. We should have stringent laws to deter such

..... See d mugu for here dey shack

Is anyone surprised that our brothers and sisters from the east are leading in this “business “?

Lol.. smart woman at least e not waste d money

Why give birth to kids if one can't train or raise them? Nigerians need serious reorientation.

Uwa nka self

African parents reason with their anus. You know your financial capability yet they keep sharking without contraception and churning babies into this world to come and suffer. For God's sake 2-3 kids are enough. Give them good training, education and future. If you aren't ready to train a kid then don't procreate

Very economic but criminal thinking.

You will be the minister of finance in cell 10

Ayodejioak:
Child trafficking is becoming rampant in Nigeria

This is a serious crime that is being taken with levity

That's why stories like these still make headlines

I still don't get when humans became a commodity

They should be dealt with seriously

Your statement up there doesn't make any sense bro

No gainsaying, We need to checkmate the needless numerous birth of offsprings we can't adequately cater for, thereby, ballooning and bloating the population and overstretching resources. Women should form the primary targets of family planning and avail themselves of ovary barrier after 3-4 births. In saner climes, sex is for companionship and bonding, here, its for careless multiple procreation.
