A pregnant Nigerian woman has raised concerns over her safety after a stranger allegedly approached her on her way to work and offered to buy her unb0rn baby for ₦1.5 million.

The woman, identified as Amaka Peace Akpunonu, reportedly shared her disturbing experience in a social media post, alleging that the incident occurred while she was heading to the school where she works.

According to her account, the stranger approached her near her workplace and asked whether she was willing to s3ll her unb9rn ch>ld. She said she immediately rejected the proposition and attempted to walk away, but the man allegedly continued following her.

She further claimed that the man told her that an individual he referred to as “Alhaji” was willing to pay ₦1.5 million for the b@by.

Recounting the frightening encounter, Amaka said the man allegedly th√eatened that she would sell the child “by fire or by force,” leaving her terrified.

The expectant mother reportedly tried calling her husband for assistance, but his phone was unreachable. She also feared that returning home would be unsafe because the stranger might continue following her.

Amaka said she eventually sought help from a woman who sells food near her workplace. After explaining what had happened, the woman reportedly contacted her husband, who was said to be a local vigilante.

According to the account, the vigilante arrived with two other men and discreetly engaged the suspect while other people nearby became involved.

The suspect allegedly attempted to flee after realising that the woman had reported him. However, people at the scene reportedly apprehended him and a$$aulted him before the police arrived and took him away.

Amaka also claimed that, after she refused to engage with the man, he began speaking to some schoolchildren nearby. She said she managed to take a photograph of him after slowing down and directing the children to move ahead of her.

Describing the incident as deeply traumatic, Amaka said her body had continued shaking since the encounter.

She urged members of the public, particularly pregnant women and parents, to remain vigilant and report suspicious behaviour to the appropriate authorities.

She also claimed that the man told her he had travelled from Keffi the previous night.
