Women with fertility issues in Nigeria are being tricked into parting with hundreds of dollars, duped into believing theyโre pregnant, and delivering babies that are often trafficked.
Africa Eye’s undercover investigation exposes one of these scammers, who guarantees results but says delivery wonโt happen without payment for an expensive โdrugโ.
This documentary investigates how these scammers prey on women so desperate for a baby that they 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.

God heal Nigeria,this is too much.
The day we start to officially publish DNA results and have the possibilities to know our close relatives – gongo a so, akutupu a hu.
kesiannya..
This used to happen in the UK only a few decades ago.
Young and unwed mothers were regularly sent away to 'girls homes' where their babies would be taken.
When the commissioner said โare you not educated?โ She was THROUGH!
NIGERIAN AT ITS FINESTโฆ SCAMMER
Beyond sad!
Who bewitched Africans
Baby Farm?
so stupid,,how can a pregnancy grow at your back n still see your periods n to make matters worse DNA says negative n still argue
tHE EXPLANATTIONS BY THE DOCTOR ARE RIDICULOUS. LOL
Mothers are selling daughters for money
Iโm so proud of Juliet for adopting 2 children ๐ ๐ ๐.
Heartbreaking
Whatttttttttttt
I watched the movie baby factory on netflix and thought it was just a movie until watching this now. So these things happen in real life ๐ฎ!?
Next do a documentary on the fake abortion providers in Africa. Theyโre killing and permanently damaging women.
This poor babies will grow never knowing who their true mothers are ๐
Corruption is(and always has been), rife throughout Africa as is witchcraft. I dont think most westerners understand just how deep rooted and inherant these practices really are over there and because its so deeprooted and inherant it's not going to stop anytime soon if at all > this is just a needle in a haystack
Thanks for this beautiful report ๐ข๐ข
Have there been any arrests made?
Nigeria is a sick. sick place. Im sorry.
What kind of evil mind conceives of such a heinous scam?? God help us. Really devils walking amongst us๐ฎ
Seems Nigeria needs religion. They need a higher power to be accountable to. Even the society saying adoption is unacceptable? In what world??๐ฎ
To think of doing something like this? This person must have some mental health issues
Is there any option to adopt out legally?
The number of cameoonian women who travel to Nigeria for this is alarming. I wish our government educate women on this
Worms
They NEED TO STOP AND PUNISH THOSE TYPES OF SICK SCAMMERS IF ITS REAL.
This Nigerians when are they going to be humans ?

My heart dropped, this probably happens in other african countries. This is heartbreaking. Dear African women wrapped in old traditions, please stop being gullible. I am sorry
I went to Nigeria once for work. Was the worst experience of my life. Scams left and right, Over population, Pollution. Was horrible.
As long as Nigerians stay in Nigeria and West Africa, I am Ok. Don't bring your nonsense to other African countries.
This stuff happens everywhere (not condoning it) but it's only Nigerians own the whole world will see
It's just sad
I wonder what the abortion rate is over there
Not her comparing cryptic pregnancy to human trafficking….Lord
Crypto currency now cryptic pregnancy๐ค๐ค๐ค… Nigeria
๐๐๐๐the baby in your back wow
ARE YOU NOT EDUCATED?! exactly what I was saying in my mind
Nigerians scamming? What a surpriseโฆ..
