The state Commissioner of Police, Alhaji Aminu Saleh, while briefing newsmen at the Police Headquarters, Ilorin, said that the placenta was handed over to Suleiman to give to the father of the baby, Jimoh Abdulfatah.

This followed a successful caesarean operation on the baby’s mother, one Bashirat Jimoh.

Saleh said the attendant instead, delivered the placenta to herbalist (Ibrahim) for alleged money-making rituals.
