The woman reportedly sold her children to different buyers
without the knowledge of her husband.
The accused simply identified as Vicky was selling the children one after the other and successfully sold four, leaving out one.
The incident happened in the Idimu area of Lagos.
Vicky had lied to her husband that she took the kids to their relations until the husband later discovered she had sold them.
Her strange commercial activity was exposed after she sold the last child for N400,000 and her husband was tipped by a neighbour.
The husband reported to the Police which led to her arrest and detention. It is believed she was selling the children to child traffickers.
Police officials say investigation is still ongoing while state authorities will prosecute all those found culpable in the act.
