The General overseer of a Pentecostal church in Akwa Ibom state identified
as Pastor John and his wife, Deborah (pictured above) have been arrested by the
Akwa Ibom state police command for allegedly kidnapping a newborn baby with
the intent of selling him to a child trafficking syndicate at the cost of
N300,000!!!
According to source, the couple would adopt little babies in the guise
that they want to raise them and then they would sell the children to their
child trafficking syndicate.
Confessing to the crime, Pastor John said “We have the mission to train
children nd suddenly we changed our mind, when my wife and I ventured
into selling of a new baby for N200,000.00 or N300,000.00 since we have a
syndicate who could sell it for us’’he said.
In a related development, the state police have arrested one lady simply
identified as Sabbath for selling her 5 day old baby for N90, 000. Sabbath gave
birth to a set of twins and decided to sell one of them, blaming it on poverty.
When interrogated, she said ‘It was poverty that led me into this mess.
It is true that I sold one of my twins for N90,000.00 to Mr Akpanam and
Mr Samuel to be able to train the other baby. My husband’s family should forgive
me for what I have done, it was poverty that led me into this’ she said.
