Narrating the story, Obafuoso said on Friday, December 23, 2022, when she delivered her baby, the policeman arrested her and took her alongside her children, including the newborn, to the SCID.

It was alleged that she wanted to sell the baby, a claim she denied.

The mum added that while she was being interrogated by Ukpabio, her baby boy was forcefully taken away from her and handed over to a yet-to-be-identified woman.

She claimed that the police officer then gave her fifteen thousand naira (N15,000) and threatened her not to return for the baby.

Obafuoso stated that he also sent her another N170,000 after she kept demanding for her child.

It was said that when the mum raised alarm over her missing child, the matter was investigated and the police officer alongside his accomplices was arrested.

Confirming their arrest, the spokesperson of the state police command, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, said;

“Two ladies have been arrested; the inspector (Ukpabio) mentioned the person he gave the baby to and we arrested that person. The person is in detention now. During interrogation, that person mentioned that she gave the baby to another person and the person has been arrested and detained.

“Both of them have not denied collecting the baby but we still don’t know where the baby is. We are still working and by the end of tomorrow (Wednesday), we should be able to tell where they took the baby to. So, we have a total of three people in detention now; the inspector, and the two ladies.”
