The victim identified as Mrs Onwumere was said to have been returning from a private hospital where her daughter delivered a baby boy when the robbers snatched the bag near Agboju market.
Reports gathered that the two robbers who were operating on a motorcycle moved close to the victim before they snatched the bag around 9pm.
Mrs. Onwumere disclosed that the bag also contained N8,500 and that she was so shocked that she could not shout.
Amidst tears, she said, “The bag contained the umblical cord (placenta) of my daughter and grandson. I was just returning from the hospital to prepare pepper soup for my daughter who just delivered a baby in aprivate hospital. I went to purchase leaf because I already had other ingredients at home. I was shocked and tears rolled down my cheeks. I cursed the robbers and will continue to curse them for snatching the cord,” she said.
