The Imo State Police Command has dismantled a major child trafficking ring with the arrest of a 42-year-old woman, Ann Ngozi Enyenwa, from Umudim Ohekelem in Ngor-Okpala Local Government Area.
Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Okoye Henry ANIPR, said the arrest was made during a routine stop-and-search operation on 20th June 2025 along the Owerri-Aba Expressway.
Enyenwa was intercepted with 12 children whose poor physical condition raised immediate red flags. Preliminary investigations revealed that the children, aged between 5 and 13, had been trafficked from different communities in Ngor-Okpala to Aba in Abia State, where they were forced into street begging.
