The others are  Nkechi Obi, 45, and Gladys Nwobodo, 38. Two others Emmanuel Obi and Emmanuel Ibe are at large.

Awurum was said to have deceived his wife, Kelechi, that he was taking their son to his sister in Owerri, their home town, when they were having issues with their landlord.

She said she was deceived into buying the boy for N650, 000 by Awurum father and others.

Nwobodo, who said Cecilia’s husband is her elder brother, added:: “She (Cecilia) asked me to accompany him to where she wanted to collect an adopted child.  I did not know that the people wanted to sell the child until I got to Owerri.”
