The Nigeria Police Force has rescued twelve children who were trafficked and arrested a couple running an unregistered orphanage in Abia State.

Following credible intelligence, police operatives executed a raid on a residential unit on Ikot Ekpene Road, Aba, where Blessing Emebo, 49, and Sunday Emebo, 42, were allegedly operating an illegal home for motherless infants.

The children, aged between six months and fourteen years, were found in the facility and are believed to have been sourced from villages in Arochukwu.

ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, the Force Public Relations Officer, confirmed on Monday, 2nd May, that the minors have been placed in the care of the state’s Ministry of Women Affairs for rehabilitation. The suspects are currently being interrogated and will face legal action following the completion of investigations.

In a related operation, police intercepted a large haul of illegal firearms in Kogi State. Officers pursued a suspicious Sharon bus that fled a checkpoint, recovering five AK-47 rifles, magazines, and more than 340 rounds of ammunition. Authorities suspect these weapons may be linked to a recent robbery in Kabba.

Inspector-General of Police (IGP) Kayode Egbetokun commended the operations, reaffirming the Force’s commitment to dismantling criminal networks, including those involved in human trafficking and illegal arms trafficking.
