One of fathers of the babies, Mr Daniel Duruji while narrating how his baby was abducted said;

"Armed robbers came to the maternity around 6.30am and took away the child with a gun. They shot the gun and took away the child from my wife"

For 24 year old student Vivien Iwuji, she said she was deceived by her sister-in-law who promised to help her take care of her child while she studied not knowing the woman wanted to sell her baby

Speaking at the reunion ceremony, the state's police commissioner, Abdulmajid Ali, pledged to rid the state of child traffickers. He said three suspects have been arrested in connection with the issue and appealed to religious and community leaders to give the police information if any woman or family without prior notice of pregnancy is seen with a new baby.
