The National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP) has reunited two rescued children, under the age of 4, with their parents, on October 21, 2021.
The children were abducted in Lafia, Nassawara state in May 2021 and sold to different women in Anambra state.
NAPTIP disclosed that one of the child was resold from Anambra state to Abuja, and they had their names changed from Sherif Umar to Chigumezu Njoku and Abdullahi Adamu to Chibueze Daniel.
DG of the agency, Fatima Waziri-Azi, while handing over the children to their parents at the headquarters, called on parents to ensure adequate protection of their children.
She also called on the public to be aware of the new trick and trend of traffickers who come into the community and familiarise and earn the trust of community before perpetrating their nefarious act.
