See How Kaduna Police Apprehend Woman For Stealing 3 Children

                         
The Kaduna State Police Command has apprehended a 29-year-old woman, Love Ogar, yesterday, for trafficking three children.

Ogar, a native of Cross River State, was arrested while she was trying to transport three children she allegedly stole from Hotoro village, in Kano State, to Onitsha, Anambra State.
Parading the suspect at the state police headquarters, the Police Public Relations Officer, SP Aminu Lawan, said the police received a distressed call from leaders of the Kawo Park branch of the Nigeria Union of Road Transports Workers (NURTW), who disclosed that the driver who brought Ogar and the three children from Kano to Kaduna informed them that he was suspicious of the strange relationship between the children and the woman who claimed to be their mother, given the way the children had been reacting to her.

Lawan added that the NURTW men had to call the police, who confessed that she stole the children from Kano and was taking them to Abuja.

Speaking to journalists, Ogar said her friend, one Tina, based in Abuja, contracted her to bring any good-looking almajirai for herand promised to pay the sum of N350,000 for each child.

“When I got to Hotoro, I was inside ‘keke’ NAPEP. I gave each of them sweets and they followed me to the Sabon Gari motor park where we boarded the available vehicle going to Onitsha with the children. I planned to stop in Abuja.

“She only promised to pay after I deliver the children,” she said.

The father of the three children, Malam Muhammadu Sanusi, said his wife called in three days ago to inform him that she could not find the children, but he had insisted that she intensify efforts within the vicinity in search of the children.

Sanusi said after he reported the case of the missing children to the police station in Hotoro, he was called at noon on Tuesday and informed that his children had been found in the company of the woman who stole them by the police in Kaduna. He was driven by his cousin to the station where he found his children; Nafiu Sanusi, 6; Khalid Sanusi,5 and Abdul Sanusi, 4.

Sani hailed the police for a job well done and thanked the NURTW men for their vigilance.

The state police command said investigation has continued earnestly in order to fish out Ogar’s accomplices.
