A statement released by NAPTIP reads:


“Emmanuel was allegedly deceiving women into thinking they are pregnant and thereafter giving other people’s babies to them having collected lots of money.

“The arrest was based on a previous arrest by the Nigerian Police, of a woman whom they saw with a 
baby in Abuja en-route Minna, Niger State.

“Based on their suspicion, they detained and questioned the woman on the identity of the baby she carried. She admitted to being a patient of Emmanuel, whom she said administered some herbs to her after years of infertility.
