According to

report from the mother of the baby, Udoka Peter that her child, a 10-month old
baby, was missing.
Among those paraded with
Chukwuocha, during the handing over of the child to the parents, Mrs Udoka
Peter, at the police headquarters in Owerri, include Mrs. Calister Igwe, seller
of the child, and Mrs. Chimezie Okafor, who claimed to be the sister to the
buyer.
The Police Public Relations
Officers, Mr. Andrew Enwerem, said that the child was recovered at Orlu Local
Government Area of Imo State.
“She said she gave her
child to one Mrs. Favour Nwokem, to collect something inside her room and
before she came out, Favour had disappeared with her child.
Immediately, the Command
swung into action and arrested three of them, while one Mrs. Favour Nwokem is
still at large.”
The suspects confessed to
the crime and said that it was a mistake.
According to the buyer of
the child, Ogechi Chukwuocha, “I bought the child for N650,000. My husband is
dead and I do not have a male child. That is why I want the child. I did not know
that the child was stolen.”
