Ondo State Police Command says its operatives have rescued a missing four-year-old girl and uncovered a child-trafficking syndicate operating across Ondo, Delta, and Anambra States.
The case was said to have begun on February 3, 2025, when one Sunday Kingsley of Alagbaka Extension, Akure, reported that his daughter, Jesinta, went missing while staying with her mother, Sunday Happiness.
The State Police Public Relations Officer, Olusola Ayanlade, made this disclosure in a statement on Thursday in Akure, the state capital.
“The case began on 3rd February, 2025, when one Sunday Kingsley ‘m’ of Alagbaka Extension, Akure, reported that his 4-year-old daughter, Jesinta Sunday, who was living with his wife, one Sunday Happiness ‘f’, had gone missing.
“The case was transferred to the Monitoring Unit, State Command Headquarters, for discreet investigation.
“In the course of proceedings, the matter was charged before the Family Magistrate Court, leading to the remand of the child’s mother, one Nneka Onah ‘f’, alongside Sunday Happiness ‘f’, at the Ondo Correctional Centre before they were later granted bail,” the statement read.
