The Delta State Police Command has arrested three suspects linked to an alleged baby factory operation in the state.

One of the suspects, identified as the child’s mother, reportedly handed over her newborn to an unidentified woman, who later sold the baby for ₦3.5 million but gave the mother only ₦600,000.

The police have vowed to continue their crackdown on such criminal activities.

Captioning the video, Edafe wrote: “The girl with long hair got pregnant, and people took care of her, but after some time, they saw her without the pregnancy, what happened to your baby, she said a woman helped her sell the child and gave her 600k. Watch and see how much she sold the baby. This baby factory business thing, we are clamping down on it seriously.”

Explaining how they sold the baby, the seller said: “I sold the Baby for 3.5 million naira, I gave the mother six hundred thousand, the thirty thousand was the money she took from me earlier on. I gave her six hundred thousand for her business, the remaining money is in my account, I didn’t touch it. She said she didn’t want to breastfeed, that she didn’t need the relationship.

The buyer, on her part stated that: “I’m from Ika, there’s a lady in my area, I told her I wanted to adopt a child in a legit way. I paid the seller four million naira. She told me that the document is in process that she’ll bring it.”

Female Teacher stabs eight-year-old Student to death

A female teacher in her 40s on Tuesday stabbed an eight-year-old student to death at an elementary school in the central city of Daejeon.

Authorities also said that after the teacher stabbed the minor she inflicted wounds on herself.

Earlier, police found the two with stab wounds on the second floor of an elementary school building in Daejeon, 160 kilometers south of Seoul, at around 6 p.m. after the student’s parent reported her missing from an after-school art class.

Rescuers transported the girl to a hospital in an unconscious state, but she later died. The teacher, who sustained stab wounds to the neck and arm, reportedly remained conscious.

Police later said the teacher admitted to the crime during a subsequent investigation, with officials determining that she might have inflicted the injuries on herself afterward.

The student was staying at the school at the time of the crime for its after-class child care session before heading to a private art class.

Police found that the teacher had taken a leave of absence due to depression and returned to the school late last year.

The teacher underwent surgery for her stab wounds, and the police said they will resume questioning her as soon as the operation is concluded and she regains her health. (Yonhap/NAN)

I dont have affair with any Big Brother Naija star –Governor cries out calls it fake

Bayelsa State Governor, Douye Diri, has firmly dismissed viral rumors circulating on social media that he fathered a child with Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) reality star, Nengi.

The rumors, which began circulating on Monday, claimed that the reality star had recently given birth to the governor’s child, with some reports even alleging that he has four wives.

In response to the rumors, Nengi took to social media platform X, addressing the claims head-on. “Let me be clear, I’m not pregnant for any governor,” she wrote in a series of posts, attempting to put the speculation to rest.

However, the rumors continued to spread across the internet.

Reacting to the unfounded gossip, the Director-General of New Media to Governor Diri, Dr. Samuel Kolawole Oredipe, condemned the rumors in a Facebook post.

He labeled the reports as false, emphasising that Nengi has no personal relationship with the governor.

Oredipe further suggested that the rumors were part of a concerted effort by the governor’s detractors to create distractions amidst events celebrating Diri’s 5th year in office.

Oredipe also criticised the use of social media to spread misinformation, urging the public to disregard the false claims.

“Political enemies of His Excellency Senator Douye Diri, Governor of Bayelsa State, are at work again. What a wicked set of people spreading falsehood on a day the Prosperity Administration commenced activities marking its 5th anniversary.

“Nengi Rebecca Hampson has no personal relationship with the governor. Nengi has come out on social media to debunk the lies. This is a distraction, and some of us are very justified in the many reasons offered to regulate the use of various social media.”
