It was reported that the woman who was alleged to have fled since 2018 was caught in the act on 3 May by the vigilant youths who carefully monitored her before she was arrested
A youth who wished to be anonymous said, “the woman had come there for a business transaction when someone who reorganized her called the youths in the area.
“She was immediately caught and detained before the officers of the Operation Zenda, a special police team, were alerted. They came and took her away for interrogation.
“She also confessed that she had been in the business of trafficking children to other parts of the country especially Lagos in particular since 2018.
“She also confessed that she had so far trafficked four children, which is doubtful; and that the receiver of the trafficked children pay as much as N700,000 for one child.
“But we still believe that she has not fully confessed about her activities but it is left for the police to uncover the extent she had gone in the business in the last five years,” he said.
The Police Public Relations Officer, Superintendent, SP, Catherine Anene who confirmed that the woman was in the custody of the police said she was yet to get accurate information concerning her matter.
