The Abia State Police Command has discovered another baby factory at Umuabuwa village in Osisioma Local Government Area of the state and consequently arrested its operator.
The baby
factory popularly known as “Osu Abuwa” was allegedly run by Mrs. Comfort Osu
Abu.
Mrs. Abu,
was using her home to harbor pregnant teenagers and women whose children she
sold to prospective buyers without following the due process of child adoption
as stipulated by law, was said to have been in the illegal child trafficking
business for many years.
The police
also arrested a couple, Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Blessing Iheanacho, for allegedly
conspiring to harbor a pregnant lady, Chidinma Okeke, at the home with the
intent of adopting her baby on delivery.
The couple,
said to have been childless after 18 years of marriage, were reported to have
contracted Chidinma to be pregnant and kept her at Comfort’s home hoping to
adopt her baby when she put to bed before police swoop on the baby factory and
arrested them.
While it was
equally gathered that a pregnant girl, Miss Ozuchi Chinasa, who was also
harboured at the home, was rescued during the raid, reports claimed that
Chidinma had been delivered of a baby boy in an undisclosed hospital in Aba. Source news naij
