Residents of Second East Circular Road in Benin City on Wednesday found three dead babies dumped on the road.
Two were wrapped in clothes and kept inside a carton under a palm tree, while the other, a baby girl of about 18months, was dumped along the road.
The two babies, believed to be twins, were already decomposing when they were found, while the girl was dressed in white shirt and purple skirt.
Some residents in the area said they saw the bodies on Wednesday morning.
Policemen were seen taking photographs of the bodies, but they were yet to be removed as at press time.
Meanwhile, the Edo State Police Command has confirmed the arrest of two teenagers – Monday Gideon and Ebhomen Junior, who obtained the sum of N300,000 by sending threatening text messages to some persons.
Monday reportedly used his share of the ransom to purchase a bicycle, while his accomplice was planning a birthday party before they were arrested. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
