But she confessed to buying some of the 15 children in her custody who were bought at prices ranging from N50,000 to N100,000.
According to Maureen, she receives the kids from one man known as Victor and another woman called Miss Alice.
Her words:
“Some of the children are mad people’s children. The others are brought to me by one Mr. Victor. Sometimes he comes with them in twos. One Miss Alice brought two to me. Alice said since I am a beginner that I should take them.
"Sometimes when Victor brings children, he will be demanding money. But due to the pressure on me sometimes I give N50,000, N60,000, and N100,000."
When Legit.ng looked up the congregation mentioned by Maureen, what was found online is Our Lady of Victory Missionary Sisters. This is a group founded in 1922 by Father John J. Sigstein. Instead of England as claimed by Maureen, the group is based in Indiana, USA. It is not clear if this is the group she claims to belong to.
The story was later posted on Instagram by @instabog9ja.
