In a press statement in Bauchi yesterday, the Police Public Relations Officer of the command, CSP Ahmed Mohammed Wakil said upon receipt of the report, a team of police officers, collaborating with local vigilante groups, promptly responded.

He added that the officers recovered the deceased bodies of the young girls, apprehended Esther Gambo and rescued a kidnapped newborn victim.

According to the PPRO, preliminary investigations revealed that the accused, Esther Gambo, lured the girls, intending to obtain a newborn female child belonging to Nafisa Dahiru.

Following her acquisition of the baby, Esther allegedly led the two girls to a nearby maize farm, where she unlawfully ended their lives with a machete before fleeing the scene.
