The matter is scheduled to be taken to court on Monday, June 26, 2023, to ensure that all those involved face the consequences of their criminal actions. “Investigation into the case continues as we intensify efforts to locate the baby and the buyers as the matter will be charged to Court on Monday, June 26, 2023, so that everyone culpable is made to face the wrath of the law for their criminal activities. “Our investigations revealed that Joy Umukoro, delivered the baby in April 2023, and conspired with her boyfriend to sell their baby for N1.7 million. “The suspects said they carried out the dastardly act because they couldn’t take care of the baby.
