Four persons have been detained by the Delta State Police Command officers on suspicion of cultism, kidnapping and criminal conspiracy.


Four suspects have been accused of selling a three-year-old boy for N850,000 and attempting to kill his mother, Miss Favour Ifowe.
The perpetrators included Miss Favour Ifowe’s boyfriend, Prince Josiah, an officer of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) serving in Abia State, a self acclaimed medical doctor and a woman alleged to be the buyer of the stolen child.




It was gathered that all of them conspired to kill a young mother after the child was sold. Luckily for the 23-year-old lady the deadly act was avoided as the police nabbed the offenders and took them to GRA Police Station in Asaba for further investigation.


As it turned out later Favour Ifowe and her son, Ezra, who suffers from a pile-related ailment, were lured by Prince Josiah from her home town, Otor-Owhe in Isoko North Local Government Area to Asaba, under the pretext of showing the boy to a woman who could cure the hemorrhoids.
On getting to Koka Junction in Asaba, Ifowe met her boyfriend with two other suspects and headed to a village in Abia State, where the boy was sold to an unnamed woman. Four suspects are in custody while the investigation continues.
