Speaking on her arrest, she said: “It was when I was taking the child away that the mother raised alarm. People gathered to beat me and I was taken to the police station before I was moved to Akure.
“I have been doing the business for about two years. The first one was in 2021 and the second one this year. I always offer to help the children when they alone they will follow me.”

“I’m the one that she used to bring the kids to. I have never given her N30,000. It was six months after she left the church, we have been looking for her that I heard that she went to steal a child,” he said.
