The National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP) has announced it has rescued a little boy trafficked from Abuja to Abuja.
The little boy was renamed Godswill Kalu Awa (alias) and was trafficked from Abuja to Aba in February 2025.
The agency disclosed this in a statement on Monday, May 19, 2025.
According to the statement, the victim was rescued by NAPTIP Abia Command on May 14, 2025.
The suspected trafficker was arrested by DSS Abia and handed over to NAPTIP.
She is alleged to have worked with three trafficking syndicates from Abuja and sold the child to a buyer.
According to her statement, the Abuja-based syndicates, who are currently on the run, received N1.8 million from the transaction, while she was paid N100,000.
NAPTIP is calling on the biological parents or any relatives of the child to urgently contact the Agency.
