Ndubuisi was alleged to have conspired with one Rose Godwin Chinweikpe, who operates a maternity home at Owoahia-Afor community in Obingwa council, to sell the baby.

It was gathered that the baby boy that was said to be a stillbirth, belongs to Ndubuisi’s supposed wife, Deborah Onukaogu.

Briefing newsmen in Umuahia, Commissioner of Police, Abia State, Mrs Janet Agbede, said, “The complainant, Mrs. Deborah Onukaogu, accepted the story that her baby was a stillbirth in good faith and subsequently became pregnant again to the same man. Ndubuisi suggested that she should go to the same maternity home where she had the alleged stillbirth. Deborah objected but the supposed husband, Appolos Ndubuisi insisted and told her that they would sell the unborn child on delivery.

This statement heightened Deborah’s suspicion on what must have happened to the previous child which they claimed died on delivery and she reported to the Police.

Investigation revealed that the purported stillbirth of the first child was not true. The complainant delivered a baby boy on June 25, 2021, but the suspects conspired and sold the child for N350k. Investigation also revealed that N300k was given to Ndubuisi, the presumed husband to Deborah while the balance of N50k was taken by Rose Godwin as her delivery expenses.”
