It was good news for the
parents of a stolen baby in Asaba, Delta State. The childless woman who had
stolen the baby has returned the eight month baby.
The baby, Daresimi was
returned under the cover of night last Friday to the Redeemed Church where it
was stolen.
It was a mystery woman who
stole the baby while her mother was singing in the choir a fortnight ago.
Daresimi’s father, Victor,
said the child was discovered at the entrance of the church with a letter
attached to his neck.
He said, the thief stated
in the letter stated: “Please, you people should forgive me. I did not mean any
harm. I am a childless woman, a pastor of a church directed me to steal a child
and keep it for 14 days and that at the end of the last day I will be able to
get pregnant and give birth to children of my own.
“ So I acted on the
instruction that very pastor gave to me and again you can see that the child is
healthy, because I took care of him. I am troubled I could not keep the child
as I also learnt that the pastor of the church where the child was stolen and
the entire church has placed a curse on me.”
Olaleye also quoted the
thief as saying, ‘I am using the opportunity to beg God, the church and the
parents of the boy to forgive and reverse the curse placed on me and also pray
for me so that I can have children of my own.”
