How pregnant teenager faked her kidnap to give birth, sell baby

Twitter feminist, Ozzy Etomi took to the microblogging platform to narrate how the teenage daughter of a domestic staff faked her kidnap so she could go and give birth and then sell her child without her mother knowing she was ever pregnant.

According to the narrator, the teenager was living in Cotonou with her uncle and his wife when the wife called the girl’s mum, who works here in Lagos, to tell her that she thinks her daughter is pregnant.

The girl denied it and her mother asked for her to come to Lagos. While in Lagos, the girl, who is plus-sized, managed to hide her pregnancy and was allegedly pretending to have her period by cutting herself.

As her delivery date drew close, she faked her kidnap when she was sent to Falomo on an errand two weeks ago.

The police were involved in the investigation and it was soon discovered that she had faked her kidnap so she could have her child and sell it. She had already made plans with people willing to buy the child.

Her plan was to return home after childbirth and the sale of her child was finalized.

Ozzy said the police arrested the girl and all involved. The girl was eventually released and is now back home with her mother.
