A couple at the weekend were arrested on the orders of the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Fatai Owoseni, for buying a stolen baby for N150,000.
THISDAY gathered that the couple, whose identity was yet to be unveiled, had been unable to have children for years, so they opted for another option, albeit illegal.
Instead of going through the legal route to adopt a child, the couple planned and hatched their plot in connivance with a medical doctor.
Pretending to be pregnant, the woman alongside her husband deceived her relatives and neighbours on the authenticity of her pregnancy.
Upon reaching gestation period, they went to the hospital and carried another person’s baby, a two months-old baby, in connivance with the said doctor.
Confirming the incident, the state Commissioner of Police, Owoseni said when the couple were arrested, they accused a doctor of selling the baby to them.
He said: “They stole a two-months-old baby. She was never pregnant yet she claimed she had a baby. When we arrested her, they claimed the doctor gave them the baby.
*sad sigh*
The quest for being a mother!!! I totally understand her jare. But she went about it the wrong way
ReplyDeletena wa oh
DeleteDesperation.
DeleteO boy! I'm short of words.
DeleteI pity them!
DeleteInstead of going through the legal way, now look at the trouble they are in now. So dumb!!!!!!
DeleteWhat comes to my mind is not about these people that were caught...what about those who did it successfully? They went to buy a baby to manipulate people's thinking about them. Na wa o.

DeleteWch long.....even if the process is long, why didn't she use the 9months fake pregnancy period to adopt one legally, instead of this
DeleteWch long.....even if the process is long, why didn't she use the 9months fake pregnancy period to adopt one legally, instead of this. Will she even feel better knowing shes with someone's child illegally

Chaii! They should have gone through the adoption process.
ReplyDeleteChai!
ReplyDeleteHmmm, different means of getting a baby.. I watched Labe orun last week and continued yesterday, same story different means. You all need to watch and hear what the women had to say...I want to get to the end of the story!

ReplyDeleteMoney is the root of all evil.

This is bad though their state is a pitiable one. I wonder why they make adoption procedures so long. Don't they want those kids to be with a family?
ReplyDeleteEeeya!!
ReplyDeleteVery wrong way to go about it
Some of us that God grant kids without hassle should be grateful
While other want kids @ all cost
Olorun Oba iyanu!!!!
Stella, abt d woman dat claimed she was chained to the urinal at Samaria clinic in today post, I want u to know that that woman and her husband r ungrateful and wicked pal. She went to a nurse for delivery and her case was mismanaged the baby had died in her womb and when she got to Samaria clinic, the doctor decided to save her life first, her complications had already given her vvf, doc did the surgery and instead of them to pay up, the hubby abandoned his wife in d hospital for weeks. She was discharged in Saturday morning without pay, and by Saturday evening herself and he r hubby had come up with that cooked up story. To tarnish the hospital image all because they think lies will see them thru. Mr and Mrs Ugwoke go and pay ur hospital bills! I'm the bv that said I would get back to u on dis matter.
ReplyDeleteIn their on case its just not the legal process that discourage them but need to convince family and friends that the child is biologically theirs.
ReplyDeleteI understand her pain but she shouldn't have opted to stealing another woman's baby, to ease her pain she wants to cause pain to another mother.
ReplyDeleteWhy not adopt legally instead of stealing?
ReplyDeleteAnything to be a mother Chai!
So wrong a decision... I think the ministry or agency in charge of adoption should enlighten the masses on how to go about it.
DeleteWhy should you steal a child seriously?
Hmmmm Imagine,they should have just gone through the legal process.it is well
ReplyDeleteThe legal process takes too long and it's very expensive. The government needs to look into the adoption process because that's the only way these baby factories and kidnapping will stop.
DeleteSo sad causing another woman pain all bcos of their quest for a child,in short that doctor's license should be revoked.
ReplyDeleteSerious matter
ReplyDeleteEiyah. So sad for both sides involved.
ReplyDeleteso sorry, God please see them through and grant their desire.
