A 65 Years Old Man Arrested For Allegedly In Possession Of A Baby Not His Own In Lagos.

65 year old house painter, Jamiu Jimoh pictured above and his hairdresser/ traditional birth attendant daughter, Yetunde Osin, have been arrested by the Lagos state police command for allegedly stealing a baby...


Yetunde who practices local midwifery at her home in the Oyingbo area of the state, had assisted a 28 year old woman simply identified as Stella to give birth on November 9th last year. Yetunde after the delivery, told Stella that her baby had died and presented a dead baby corpse to Stella.

However she was seen with a baby girl within the same period. She eventually gave the baby to her father at Ikorodu after her neighbors began to suspect foul play. Following complains by her neighbors, she and her father were arrested and accused of running a baby trafficking syndicate. She however denied the claim, saying she found the new born baby abandoned at Apapa road, Oyingbo and took a liking to the child and decided to keep the baby.
