Punch Newspapers Sections Patrick Odey, Uyo The Akwa Ibom State High Court sitting in Uyo has sentenced one Mary Effiong, a mother of three, to 28 years’ imprisonment for stealing two pupils of St. Philip’s Primary School, Use Offot, for sale in Osisioma Ngwa, Abia State. It was gathered that the incident occurred on November 12, 2018, when the convict lured the then five- and six-year-old pupils with biscuits after claiming to be a friend of their mothers. Effiong in her extrajudicial statement had told the police that she went to the school and lured the pupils following her agreement with one Blessing Sunday, alias Mummy Vom, from Osisioma Ngwa in Abia State, who engaged her to look for children from Akwa Ibom and bring to her.
