The men of the Ogun State Police Command have arrested a nurse,
Adebola Titilayo, who is also the owner of a private hospital in Arogun
Village, in the Ewekoro Local Government Area, for allegedly stealing a new
born baby. The nurse allegedly took the baby away after the delivery, before
the mother could recover from pangs of childbirth. She reportedly told the
mother that she had a stillbirth. The incident happened on June 13, 2015, but
policemen from the Ewekoro division arrested the suspect on Friday. It was
gathered that the real mother of the baby got information that her baby did not
die, but was with the nurse. The state Police Public Relations Officer, Muyiwa
Adejobi, who confirmed the arrest of the nurse, added that neighbors of the
nurse and the people in the community, who suddenly saw her with a baby without
any pregnancy, became suspicious of her. He said, “The nurse, who took the
delivery of the baby in the hospital on June 13, 2015, had deceived
the mother that she had a stillbirth. “She was arrested when the mother got
reliable information about the baby and immediately informed the police. “The
residents of the community also noticed that the suspect, who was never
pregnant, suddenly started nursing a baby that she could not breastfeed. They
informed the mother who later reported the case to the police in Ewekoro on
August 7, 2015. “In the course of police investigation, it was revealed that
the suspect, a mother of seven, had issues with her initial marriage and got
married to another rich man, who she wanted to have a baby for.” Adejobi, a
Deputy Superintendent of Police, said the police operatives had rescued the
baby unhurt. He said the suspect had made useful statement that would assist
the police in their investigation. He said, “The suspect has given a credible
statement that will assist the police. The matter will soon be charged to
court.”He added that the state Commissioner of Police, Abdulmajid Ali, had
directed that the matter be investigated to get more useful information.
