“I just want a child so that I too will be called a mother” – Woman who stole baby from Bauchi hospital seeks forgiveness

A 30-year-old lady identified as Sukyama Irmiya, who stole a twin baby from the ward of Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University Teaching Hospital (ATBUTH), Bauchi state has sought forgiveness for her crime.

The 14-day-old baby, Ibrahim Mohammed, was stolen on Wednesday, September 21, 2022, by Sukyama who posed as a hospital staff member.

Security agents recovered the baby on Tuesday, September 27, 2022 and arrested the 34 year old suspect.

According to Sukyama, she stole the baby due to frustration from the incessant mockery by her mates and family members of her husband, because of her childlessness.

Looking remorseful while speaking with journalists at the headquarters of Bauchi State Police Command, the woman revealed she regretted her action and preferred death to the shame she brought upon herself by the act.

“I have realized my mistakes, you can only feel what I felt when you find yourself in my precarious situation. Before you know it, it has become a wound in my heart to the extent that I prefer that I am dead by now than stand this shame I am facing now,” she said.

“I am like a walking corpse, I am ready to die now but I demand for total forgiveness from God and everyone hurt by my actions. If I find favour of forgiveness from the parents of the baby, I will be very grateful to God.”

The lady however denied that she was from Dull in Tafawa Balewa LGA of Bauchi State as was erroneously reported when the story first broke out in September.

“My name is Sukyama Irmiya, I am from Kanam LGA in Plateau State. I am 30 years old.” she said, adding that she came to Bauchi to see a doctor over my infertility issue.

“I came to Bauchi to see a doctor and from there I went to the Teaching Hospital (ATBUTH) to see a doctor but I later changed my mind because of the condition I found myself in,” she narrated.

“I thought that even if I met the doctor, it is all about child bearing and I don’t have a husband because I have been chased out of my marriage, so there’s no hope of child bearing,”

On how she was able to take the baby, Sukyama Irmiya stated that,

“I went into the ward and stole a child. I stole the child because I want it, I want to take care of it as my own child, that was the reason I went for a newly-born baby.”

“I had tried adopting one but I couldn’t get one because there was no infant child available at the orphanage I went to. I did not do it with any ulterior motives, I just want a baby so that I too will be called a mother. After taking the baby, I went to the village with the baby.

“I repeat that I did it with the good intentions of raising the baby from the bottom of my heart. I am begging for forgiveness from the parents and other people affected by the act. I want God to forgive me, the authority should be lenient with me. I know that I have offended God, please, forgive me.”

“I went into the hospital confidently, entered the ward and met the woman, I engaged her in friendly conversations and she loosened up with me,” she further narrated.

“I asked her if she had twins and she answered yes, I then asked her, now that you are sick, how are you breastfeeding the children, she told me that she was giving them milk. I asked her if I could take him to see how he looks, and she allowed me to do that.”

“Immediately I took the baby, my heart told me to act as the mother and go. I then told her that I was coming and I just left the hospital and went away with the baby. I followed the main entrance to the main road and boarded a Keke and went to the village called Za’a in Kanam LGA.”

There has been a lot of unrest in the state of Abuja with news of kidnapping all over. A twitter user, @iam_paulash, shared how hi s friend escaped an encounter with kidnappers.

Read his story below:

“How my friend was almost kidnapped in Abuja.
His cousin came into town from the U.S and it was all fun until he went to drop him at the airport around 2 am, he boarded around 2:30 am back to the U.S. Immediately he hit the road and other cars were also leaving the airport at the same time.

The road was completely free and dark since the FCT minister decided to keep us in the dark. The other cars from the airport were with him and it was more of a convoy with people he didn’t know, as he was approaching the city gate, he signaled to his intersection which is
Towards Area 1, suddenly one of the cars from the airport overtook him and stopped and his lights went off while the second car was directly behind him, basically, he was locked in the middle of two cars at 3 am in a lonely location.

Immediately he knew something was up and the only option was to climb the high parameters, which he did they tried to shoot his tire twice and they missed, off he goes at high speed with two cars chasing him.

Approaching area 1 roundabout he didn’t know police were stationed at the same spot via stays during the day, before he realized he saw a torchlight flashing and it was too late to step on the brakes, he had to drive with full speed into the ditch.
The two cars chasing him were approaching the spot and didn’t know policemen were stationed there too, he immediately came out of his car in confusion and screaming some people are after me pointing to the cars approaching the police spot before the policemen could understand the situation, both cars zoomed off.

In less than 5mins another man was running towards them on foot from up the bridge, screaming he has just been attacked by the same gang, they were all told to station there until visibility was obvious. Apparently, that gang goes to the airport and tracks people, follows you to town, and kidnaps you. Thank God he was smart enough to escape at city gate, if not wahala for dey”

Big brother Naija is the devil’s incarnate and must be stopped. – MURIC

The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has backed Segun Runsewe’s requests that members of the House of Representatives granted the National Council for Art and Culture (NCAA) the authority to arrest and prosecute crossdressers in the nation as well as to pursue legal action against the producers of Big Brother Naija (BBN) over nudity depicted on the show.

 

On Tuesday, October 4, Runsewe made the request during an inquiry by an ad hoc committee of the House.

In a statement issued on Sunday, October 9, by its group head, Prof. Ishaq Akintola, MURIC backed Runsewe’s demands and referred to the reality TV program as “devil’s incarnate”

“The Director General of the National Council for Arts and Culture (NCAC), Segun Runsewe on October 4 called on the National Assembly (NASS) to give his agency powers to go after BB Naija in order to stop nudity in the reality TV show.

The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) supports Runsewe’s call and we see no reason why the NASS will hesitate to give him all the necessary backing. Big Brother Naija’s reality TV show is the devil incarnate misleading Nigerian youth.

MURIC has been consistent in its condemnation of BB Naija. We can recall two separate statements issued on the reality TV show. On July 12, 2019, we made a statement titled ‘Ban BB Naija’.
Again on Oct. 8, 2020, we issued another statement under the caption ‘MURIC Chides Ogun Governor Over BBNaija Gifts’.

That was when the governor gave a bungalow and N5 million cash to the winner of the reality TV show.
We saw the governor’s action as idolizing immorality and demonizing discipline. We described his action as ‘disappointing, disgusting, misplaced and myopic.

We call on the NASS to listen to Runsewe. It is the voice of reason. BBNaija is forcibly dragging our youths to a world of nudity, debauchery, and shamelessness. BBNaija constitutes a potent threat to every home. It is open rape of our cultures, values, and norms. BBNaija is lactiferous.

The NASS will have its name indelibly carved in letters of gold if it hearkens to the plea made by Runsewe. His appeal has revealed the weakness in our legal system.

It has revealed that there are no extant laws powerful enough to stop romance and sex on our television channels. The time to give the law the teeth to bite is now.”

Bella speaks

Big Brother Naija season 7 housemate, Bella Okagbue has commented on the several reports and allegations levied against her fellow housemate and lover, Sheggz.

Vele bengim’cuphile. He didn’t love me anymore but wanted me around so he’d bread crumb me just about enough to keep me attached.

The soldier, identified simply as Nafiu, was arrested last week around Dankogi Park in Zuba in collaboration with members of the Vigilante Group of Nigeria in the area.

The National Youth Service Corps is a program set up by the Nigerian government during the military regime to involve Nigerian graduates in nation building and the development of the country.

Showing off her NYSC certificate on Friday, October 7, she wrote: “Thanks to Almighty God for making this day a reality.”

In other news, A physically challenged member of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Peter Gwer, has donated 50 sets of wheelchair to other physically challenged persons.

Speaking in an interview with The Nation in Makurdi, Benue State, the corps Member said as someone on a wheel chair himself, he knew what it means to be physically challenged.

In his words – “I have taken it upon myself to alleviate the hardship of people who cannot move around for the sake of their disability because I’m physically challenged too.

“Our society does not care enough for the physically challenged persons. They are the poorest in our society not because they want to be poor.

“Physically challenged persons cannot get decent jobs; not because they cannot work. But these and other hardships we suffer are because our society erroneously feels that a disability in the leg equals a disability in the human mind. So, they deny the physically challenged persons opportunities.”

Lady almost goes into trance, sheds tears of joy as longtime boyfriend proposes to her in church (Video)

A video serving the rounds online captures the moment a young man proposed to his girlfriend during a church service.

In the trending clip, the young lady, who is a church worker, was busy with the Lord’s work when her boyfriend got down on both knees to propose marriage to her.

The lady dressed in a white shirt and black skirt was busy praying as she held the offering box. Unbeknownst to her, her man had knelt on both knees, waiting for her to finish praying for her to pop the question.

As she concluded her prayers, her man, who was already kneeling behind with the ring, tapped her. When she saw him in that position, she was moved to tears and continued to thank God, as if her long-standing prayer had been answered.

She finally faced her man, stretching her hands forward as he slid the ring on her finger.

At one point in the video, she almost went into a trance. Her mood suddenly changed, as she held on to her body, swaying dramatically back and forth, until some church officials stepped in to support her.

The video was shared on TikTok with the caption, “When you’ve been waiting your whole life this day”.
