A boy and a girl have been arrested for allegedly attempting to steal a baby at the Oja Tuntun market in Ilorin, Kwara State.

A source said the suspects confessed that they were promised N12,000 each if they succeeded in the job.

The sketchy detail we have now is that it involves a boy and a girl of nine and five years respectively who were accused of trying to steal a two-year-old.
