VIDEO: Nurses Arrested Over Baby Sale In Katsina
Police in Katsina State have arrested two nurses for their alleged involvement in the trafficking of a newborn baby.
TRACKING___The suspects were paraded by the Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Gambo Isah, on Monday at the Katsina State Police Command headquarters in the state capital.
He revealed that the nurses – identified as Misira Tijjani and Grace Ejigu – were arrested on Tuesday last week based on a tip-off.
According to Isah, the suspects conspired and sold the child to one Eucharia Onyema, 45, a resident of Sabuwar Kasuwa quarters in Katsina.
He explained that a 25-year-old woman, Shamsiyya Sani, was delivered of a baby at a clinic in Kofar Kaura on July 25.
The mother was, however, said to have abandoned the child at the medical facility with a handwritten note that she was born out of wedlock.
“Nemesis caught up with them when they were arrested on their way from the hospital to their houses with the child through the help of a Keke NAPEP rider who suspected them of stealing of the child. Investigation is ongoing,” the command spokesman said.
