The PPRO said: “Sympathisers in the community noticed that the nurse (suspect), who was never pregnant, suddenly started nursing a baby that she could not even breast feed. They informed the mother who later reported the case to the police at Ewekoro on August 7.
“In the course of police investigation, it was revealed that the suspect, a mother of seven, had issues with her initial marriage and got married to another rich man, who the nurse wanted to have, at least, a baby for, for reasons known to her.
“The police operatives have recovered the baby alive and unhurt. The suspect has, however, given credible statement that will assist the police and the matter will soon be charged to court.
“The state Commissioner of Police, Abdulmajid Ali, has commended the operatives for a good job and charged owners of hospitals or maternity homes to operate legally and always employ credible and trusted nurses and staff.”
