A
female pastor who was found out to have engaged in the really unholy
act of selling little babies, is being made to pay for her crimes.
Peace Udoh
Peace Udoh, a pastor at the Divine Yard Deliverance Ministry in Iyana Iyesi, Ota, Ogun State, has been arrested by the police.
The woman was arrested for allegedly running a baby factory in the church.
According to Punch Metro, the 47-year-old was said to have sold 64
babies before she was arrested on Sunday by operatives from the Lagos
State Police Command who acted on a tip-off.
Udoh was apprehended with one Angela Akpan and a nurse, Mrs. Bukola
Ajala, who reportedly assisted in childbirth at Udoh’s church.
Punch Metro reports that the pastor usually referred complicated
cases to the nurse, whose clinic – El Shaddai Hospital – is located a
few metres away from the church.
It was gathered that Angela’s younger sister, 17-year-old Goodnews Akpan, recently gave birth to a child at the clinic.
Angela, who was arrested on Saturday in the Sango area, was said to
have led police operatives on Sunday to Udoh’s church and Ajala’s
clinic, where they were picked up respectively.
While parading the suspects on Monday at the Lagos State Police
Command headquarters in Ikeja, the Commissioner of Police, Fatai
Owoseni, said detectives swooped on the syndicate after receiving
intelligence report that Udoh needed a buyer for Goodnews’ baby.
“The suspects run a baby factory in the Sango Ota area. We are still working to get 64 other children she has sold out,” the CP added.
However, the pastor, who hails from Akwa Ibom State, refuted the
allegation, saying she used the church as a maternity home to assist her
pregnant church members for a token.
She said, “I have been a pastor for 13 years. I only assisted
my church members during childbirth. I take delivery of 13 to 15 babies
every year and I have handled over 60 cases so far. I don’t sell the
babies.
“Whenever I have a complicated case, I refer the patient to the
nurse and we share the money she collects for the service. Angela
brought her sister to me in July. She gave birth on November 16 at the
nurse’s clinic and she was discharged. I was surprised when the police
came to arrest me yesterday (Sunday).”
Ajala, the nurse, said she collected between N15,000 and N17,000
for each child delivery, adding that she didn’t know anything about
selling of babies.
The third suspect, Angela, said, “I am from Abak in Akwa Ibom. I
took my sister from our village to the pastor when her pregnancy was
four months. She was there until she gave birth in November and I paid
N17,000. I didn’t intend to sell her child and I have never sold any
child before.”
Goodnews, a secondary school dropout, told our correspondent that
she was not aware of the plan to sell her baby. She said she followed
Angela to Lagos to avoid being ridiculed in the village.
“I got pregnant in the school but none of my boyfriends was willing to take the responsibility for the pregnancy.
“My mother would not allow me stay with her so I decided to follow my sister to Lagos,” she added.
