Nine pregnant women have been rescued by the operatives of the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons, NAPTIP, from a baby factory in Abuja.
This is contained in a statement by the Press Officer, NAPTIP, Mr Vincent Adekoye, and made available to newsmen on Thursday in Abuja.
Adekoye revealed that the baby factory is situated at one of the sprawling estates in the Ushafa area in the Federal Capital Territory.
He also disclosed that the raid on the facility followed a tip-off from a concerned citizen.
He said the victims were locked up in an apartment inside the estate by a yet-to-be-identified suspected trafficking agent after they were recruited through an online platform.
