In proactive manner of discharging his duties as a security expert, Imo State Police Command under the leadership of CP Mohammed Ahmed Barde, psc(+), has reunited the 16-year-old girl, Little Miss Khadizat Labaran, ‘f’, who hails from Lokoja in Kogi State back with her parents in Kogi.
This was made possible through the active support and cooperation of the State’s Gender Affairs and Vulnerable Group who took the young girl to Kogi State and handed her over to the Kogi State Ministry of Women Affairs and thereafter to her parent.
It could be recalled that the teenager was found by a good samaritan who saw her wandering about at Nkwerre LGA of Imo State on 25/07/2023 and subsequently took her to Nkwerre Police Divisional headquarters where she disclosed to Police operatives that she was abducted by Kidnappers at Ganaja junction in Lokoja who blindfolded her, put her in a vehicle and took her to a bush in Imo state where she eventually escaped by whiskers.
The Imo Commissioner of Police has however commended the good samaritan for taking the found girl to Nkwerre Police Divisional Headquarters and graciously appreciates the respective Commissioners of Gender Affairs, in Imo and Kogi for their maximum support in reuniting the teenager back with her parents.
The CP applauds DPO Nkwerre for the exemplary fatherly role he played by caring for the young girl.
To this end, the CP reiterates the Command’s unflinching commitment to ensuring maximum security for all and sundry in the State.
Therefore, in times of emergencies, the Command can be reached via 08034773600 or 08098880197.
