Women with fertility issues in Nigeria are being tricked into parting with hundreds of dollars, duped into believing they’re pregnant, and delivering babies that are often trafficked.
Africa Eye's undercover investigation exposes one of these scammers, who guarantees results but says delivery won’t happen without payment for an expensive ‘drug’.
This documentary investigates how these scammers pray on women so desperate for a baby that they believe or choose to ignore the reality that is obvious to most. We speak to those who have fallen for this scam and expose the link to baby trafficking.
Yemisi Adegoke reports on the crippling stigma of infertility in Nigeria and uncovers the criminal networks who profit from it.
