Selfishness!!! Woman Sells Unborn Baby For N100k(thousand)

The police in Lagos State have launched a
manhunt for a woman, Amaka Ogua, for
allegedly selling the unborn child of her
younger sister, Nkechi, for N100,000 in the
Mile 2 area of the state.
It was gathered that Amaka, who the
police accused of running a baby factory,
had already collected N50,000 from a
client for the unborn child.
PUNCH Metro learnt that a balance of
N50,000 was agreed to be paid when 31-
year-old Nkechi was delivered of the baby.
Our correspondent gathered that the
bubble burst on Friday, June 24, when the
police got a tip-off from a non-
governmental organisation – Child
Protection Network – that money had been
allegedly paid to Nkechi’s sister for the
unborn child.
Our correspondent learnt that the matter
was reported at the FESTAC Police
Division, which sent officers to rescue
Nkechi from the apartment on the same
day.
A CPN member, Toyin Oklagogo, who was
also at the police station, told PUNCH
Metro that Nkechi was impregnated by a
man brought home by her sister.
He said, “The woman was registered at a
private hospital in the Alaba area of Ojo.
But she stayed in a flat around 2nd
Rainbow, Mile 2. When the information got
to the CPN that she had become pregnant
and her unborn child had been sold, we
went to the house with another executive,
but Nkechi refused to follow us. We then
reported the case at the police station.
“The Divisional Police Officer at the
FESTAC Police Division asked his men to
rescue Nkechi the Friday we reported at
the station. We did not meet her sister at
home when we went to her house at the
Ojo Military Cantonment. She would have
been arrested immediately.
“Nkechi had a mental challenge some
years back. She said at the police station
that although she had memory loss, she
could remember that her sister brought a
man to impregnate her in the house. She
added that she was not in support of the
sale of her baby, but her sister had
collected money from a man.
“Nkechi also told us that she gave birth to
a baby two years ago, but her sister had
taken the child to an unknown person. So,
the police are investigating child trafficking
as well.”
A police source told our correspondent
that when Amaka’s husband was invited to
the station, he declined the invitation.
The source added that the husband
claimed it was a family issue and that the



police should steer clear of it.
The source said, “Nkechi is carrying an
eight-month -old pregnancy. So, she is
receiving care and we believe her safety is
a top priority. The police invited the
husband of the suspect, but he declined,
saying the police were meddling in a family
affair. But the victim already confessed
that money had been collected for her
unborn child.”
Our correspondent gathered that the
matter had also been reported at the
Lagos State Ministry of Women Affairs and
Poverty Alleviation, Ikeja, which took
custody of Nkechi.
The Lagos State Police Public Relations
Officer, SP Dolapo Badmos, confirmed the
incident, adding that the pregnant woman
had been rescued.
She said, “The sister of the pregnant
woman wanted to take advantage of her
sibling’s mental condition to sell her baby
when born. Investigations revealed that an
amount of money had been collected for
the purpose.
“Operatives from the FESTAC division are
still investigating the matter. Meanwhile,
the command has rescued the pregnant
woman and she is in safe custody.”
