BREAKING🚨🚨: Ogun State Police dismantles Child Trafficking Syndicate: 7 Children rescued, 5 principal suspects arrested, ₦1.5million per baby sales racket exposed. Full Report: The Ogun State Police Command has successfully dismantled an organized child trafficking and illegal surrogacy syndicate operating under the guise of an orphanage facility. This breakthrough was achieved by the Anti-Kidnapping Unit of the State Criminal Investigation Department following the transfer of the case from Idanyin Divisional Headquarters. In the course of the operation, 7 children were rescued and 5 principal suspects were arrested, exposing a planned sale of babies at the rate of ₦1.5 million per child. The case began on 28th November, 2025, when one Amara reported the abduction of her six-year-old son, Samuel Honesty, at Idanyin Divisional Headquarters in the Agbara area of Ogun State. Preliminary investigations led to the arrest and prosecution of Chioma Honest and Praise Honesty for suspected foul play. Following the report, the case was transferred to the SCID for in-depth investigation. On 21st January, 2026, the abducted child was dropped at Gowon Police Station, Lagos State, where he stated that he had been taken to Joyful Kids Orphanage, Badagry, and identified Madam Joy as the operator of the facility. Acting on this intelligence, operatives conducted a coordinated operation at the orphanage, rescuing six additional children and bringing the total number of rescued minors to seven. The rescued children include Ramsey Chiedozie (8 years), Rafael Rofiu (6 years), Kazeem Chiedozie (6 years), Segun Uthman (9 years), Ola Abdulhakeem Abdulrasheed (9 years), David Oyelese (9 years), and Samuel Honesty (6 years). We wish to emphasize that Samuel Honesty has been safely and happily reunited with his mother, Amara, bringing closure to a traumatic experience and restoring the family unit. During the operation, two pregnant young women, Tanimola Martins (18 years) and Favour Martins (18 years), were discovered within the facility. They confessed that they were recruited to carry pregnancies with the intention of selling their babies to pre-arranged buyers upon delivery, at a fee of ₦1.5 million per child, facilitated by the orphanage operator. The principal suspect, Joy Chiedozie (36 years), also known as Madam Joy, was arrested at the orphanage. She confessed to purchasing the abducted child for ₦1.5 million, paying ₦900,000 in cash and ₦600,000 via bank transfer to a woman known as Kelly, and subsequently selling the child to one Mr. Emmanuel, who is currently at large. Further investigation revealed that Yusuf Adebowale (31 years), the orphanage driver, also acted as an uncertified surrogate agent, facilitating illegal surrogacy arrangements and connecting pregnant girls with prospective buyers. Other suspects arrested include Martins Favour (18 years), Tanimola Martins (18 years), and Rachael Chiedozie (16 years). The other six rescued children have been formally handed over to the Ogun State Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Development for protective custody, welfare assessment, and family tracing. Investigations are ongoing to apprehend Mr. Emmanuel and other buyers in the trafficking network, trace Kelly and the financial transactions, identify additional victims and accomplices, and dismantle the wider child trafficking syndicate. The Ogun State Police Command reiterates its zero tolerance for child trafficking, illegal adoption, and exploitation of vulnerable children and young women. Members of the public are urged to report suspicious orphanage operations, illegal adoption practices, and human trafficking activities to the nearest police station. The Command remains committed to safeguarding lives, protecting vulnerable citizens, and upholding the rule of law.

ANAMBRA STATE: The Anambra State Commissioner of Police, Ikioye Orutugu, and the Anambra State Police PRO, SP Tochukwu Ikenga — officers whom Naija Confra once held in high regard — are now becoming some of the worst performers when it comes to handling cult-related violence, and we sincerely hope they begin to change their approach. Naija Confra praises people when they do well, but also call them out when they fail in their duties. Since the initiation of a 3-year-old baby by DNKI (Vikings) cultists on October 15 in Nsugbe, Anambra State, the Anambra State Police Command has done absolutely nothing about the case — no statement, no investigation update, and not even a single post on their social media pages. Meanwhile, when it was initially thought to have happened in Delta State, the Delta State Police Command acted swiftly and effectively. This unseriousness from the Anambra State Police may eventually allow these criminals to escape from the country. It was this same Anambra where, on March 29 midnight, security operatives busted an NBM (Aye) cult initiation, yet the leader of the group, who organized the initiation that saw many di£, is still walking freely and now even heads a faction of the cult group nationally. This is unacceptable. The Governor of Anambra State, Charles Soludo, and the Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, must step in immediately. One of the individuals involved in the child’s initiation has already been identified, and Naija Confra has video evidence that can assist in the investigation. If nothing is done about this case, where a child was initiated into a cult, then worse cases will happen in the future, because no example was made in this one. Reject Cultism.
