Police ASP and Complicity Arrested Regarding Presumed Kidnapping of Children in Sokoto


The arrest of a Sokoto State Police Command officer and an accomplice for their alleged involvement in the kidnapping of five juveniles in the state has been confirmed.


Investigations into the incident have begun, according to Command Spokesman ASP Ahmad Rufai, who also verified the arrest of Elizabeth, an accomplice, and the officer only known as ASP Kulu.


Recall that the FCT Police Command detained Elizabeth and Kulu, an assistant superintendent of police, on suspicion of kidnapping five children—among them a baby girl who was less than two weeks old—from Sokoto State.


"Both the suspects and the victims were transfer and handed over to the order from the FCT Police Command to look into the situation more thoroughly " the spokesperson stated.


Three babies under the age of two were among those taken, as was Asmau Ya'u, five, who was allegedly kidnapped en route to an Islamiyya school in Sokoto.


The suspects were reportedly detained while riding a commercial 18-seater bus from Sokoto to Abuja. Passengers reportedly saw that the suspects were unable to nurse the children throughout the demanding seven-hour ride, and they reported this to the police near Abuja.

According to Sirajo Madawaki, a representative of the Sokoto State Human Rights Network, the issue was moved from Abuja to the network, and an inquiry has since been launched.


He promised that the network would follow the situation through to conclusion to guarantee that the children were reunited with their respective parents while the perpetrator was being prosecuted.


Prior to her journey to Sokoto, the suspect, ASP Kulu, who was allegedly serving with the Kubwa Division, had requested a leave of absence, but it had not been approved.
