A young woman from Mpu in Aninri Local Government Area of Enugu State has been arrested for selling her baby for N100, 000.
The Nigerian Security and Civil Defense Corps, NSCDC, Enugu State Command, has nabbed a young woman, identified as Nkechi Isioko, for reportedly trying to sell her baby for N100, 000.
Nkechi was paraded alongside some prostitutes and pipeline vandals. It was gathered that the suspect had collected the sum of N100, 000 from one Mrs. Blessing Egbo before operatives of the NSCDC arrested her and the suspected buyer.
She claimed that Mrs. Egbo initially gave her part payment of N10,000, and later completed the money.
She further confessed that she later gave back the N100, 000 to Mrs Egbo after she was advised not to sell her own baby, adding that she wanted to sell the baby because she needed money to treat herself.
