Seventeen-year-old Blessing Godspower, on Wednesday narrated how her mother sold her eight-month-old baby. The mother, Onyinyechi Nwabueze, 38, was paraded by the police at the ‘A’ Division of the Plateau State Police Command.

Policemen from the division, led by the Divisional Police Officer, Mr. Victor Dimkpa, a Chief Superintendent of Police, had rescued the baby, named Chiamaka, in Awka, the Anambra State capital.

Blessing, who was staying with her mother at Rukuba Road area of Jos North, was put in the family way by her boyfriend, now no where to be found.


After baby Chiamaka was delivered, Blessing’s mother decided to get rid of the baby. According to her, on July 19, her mother sent her on a phony errand in order to effect the “diabolical” act.

She said, “My mother sent me on an errand, but when I came back I asked for my baby and my mother asked, ‘which baby?’ She feigned ignorance and at that point I started crying and reported the incident to the Police.”

Police Commissioner, Mr. Chris Olakpe said, “After the mother sent her daughter away, she (Nwabueze) stopped a tricycle and took the baby to the first receiver, one Eucharia Anyaegbu. Anyaegbu transferred the baby to the second receiver, Rita Maduako, who finally sold the baby to 53-year-old unmarried woman, Grace Nnadozie.”

Nnadozie, however, told our correspondent that after she applied to an orphanage home for a child without any result for the past two years, she sought Anyaegbu’s help.

She said she gave N500,000 to Anyaegbu for the baby. Anyaegbu gave N350, 000 to Maduako. Maduako was to give N200,000 to the baby’s grandmother.

But Nwabueze denied that she sold the baby. She said her daughter was very wayward, so she decided to give the baby out to somebody else who would take proper care of her.

She said, “How can I sell my granddaughter. My daughter is not capable of taking care of the baby and I decided to give her to somebody who will take proper care of her.”

Mrs Nwabueze however confessed that she lost her husband in 2007 and since then, she and the six children she had with him, had been finding things difficult.

Admittedly the difference is slight, but glaring non the less. It could mean the difference between an evil grandmother and a well intentioned but wrong grandmother.

slimyem: How do people live with these things?
How do you puchase a baby and be at peace with it all your life?

Government only arrest goat thieves, electronic thieves, food thieves etc, but oil thieves? no no no. so the Niger Delta boys developed kidnapping investment. the grandmother considered such investment and looked inward, saw the baby as good and marketable. women have tender faces and voices but terrible hearts. my advice is when security are doing investigation, women should not be left out, cause they could even be the masterminder of the crime.

it would have been better she had the child for her husband, in her husband house than for a jobless and irresponsible boyfriend that is only interested in the passion than the girl's care. and than the house of her business tycoon grandmother.

there are still more boyfriends out there. if she is still ready for more open leg session, her grandmother is ready for more businesses as an SME.

Bros, what you wrote would have made sense if the caption reads: 'my boy friend impregnated me, my mother and sold my baby-17-year-old girl'
