“Further Investigation also revealed that the Oorphanage home was not registered.

“The suspects and victims have been handed over to National Agency for the Prosecution of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP) for further investigation and prosecution,” Namsel added.

Meanwhile, the state’s Commissioner of Police (CP), Maiyaki Muhammed Baba, has warned criminals and those nursing ambitions that are inimical to the safety of the state to desist from such acts, as the police will not relent in mobilising  resources to confront and render their operations fruitless.

He urged parents and guardians to take proper care of their children, and also appealed to members of the public to continue to avail the police with credible information that will assist in taming criminals in the state.
