On 12th June 2025, the Police Operatives attached to Ozubulu Divisional Headquarters rescued two children between the ages of 3 and 5 years. They arrested one Onyedika Daniel ‘M’, aged 19 years, and Nkechi Onuwa ‘F’, aged 25 years, at Okpuno – Oba, Idemili South Local Government Area.
The Operatives’ swift reaction followed a report by the mother of the victims, that one of her children came and narrated to her how an unknown person had taken away two of his siblings on their way to her shop along Nwafor Junction, Eziora, Ozubulu.
During the interrogation of the suspect, Onyedika admitted to the crime and took the Operatives to Oba where he had already handed over to Nkechi Onuwa for the continuation of their criminal plan.
The Command is expanding the investigations for the arrest of the other syndicate members, while the Case will be charged to Court on the conclusion of investigations.
This achievement showcases the Command’s commitment to protecting vulnerable members of society and tackling crimes against children.
