No fewer than five suspects have been reportedly arrested in connection with the abduction and illegal sale of a two-week-old baby boy in Ajah area of Lagos State. 

The suspects, including a female guardian entrusted with the teenage mother’s welfare, were apprehended following a detailed investigation by the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID).

According to a statement issued by the State  Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin on Thursday, the case originated from a complaint made at the Ajah Division on May 5, 2025. 

The report detailed how a 16-year-old girl, identified only as Miss Happiness, became pregnant under undisclosed circumstances. Due to financial difficulties, her family entrusted her to one Nonye Osi for care until she gave birth.

However, police investigations revealed a disturbing conspiracy. Nonye Osi, along with four accomplices—Akintan Adedayo, Jimoh Bashiru, Elizabeth Bishop, and Bukola Oladapo—allegedly moved the teenager to an undisclosed location and sold the newborn for ₦3,000,000. 

"Following the transfer of the case to SCID, detectives from the Gender/Anti-Human Trafficking Unit launched a thorough investigation, ultimately leading to the safe recovery of the baby in Agemuwo, Badagry, Lagos." 

The police authorities confirmed that "the infant is in good health and is currently receiving care while arrangements are being made for his reunion with his biological mother." 

The Lagos State Police Command has assured the public that investigations are ongoing and all parties involved in the illegal transaction will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

Bandit leader, Bello Turji, has ordered 5,000 residents from more than a dozen rural communities in Sokoto State to flee their homes.

This was confirmed by a lawmaker, Habibu Halilu Modachi, and residents who spoke to AFP on Monday.

“Between Saturday and Sunday, over 5,000 people have been forced out of their homes in Bafarawa and several nearby communities as a result of threats of attack from Bello Turji,” Modachi said.

“Turji sent his men to these communities and asked them to leave by Sunday afternoon or risk being killed.”

The evacuation is aimed at clearing the area of its population, who the bandits accuse of providing information to the military about their locations.

Residents of several villages in Isa district near the border with Niger fled their homes on Saturday through Sunday following threats of attacks by criminal gangs who ordered them to leave on Turji’s orders, the sources said.

The displaced were taking shelter in Isa town and in Shinkafi in neighbouring Zamfara state, as well as with relations in relatively safer far-away communities.

“Even this morning the bandits killed two people, injured nine and kidnapped seven others,” Modachi said.

Abubakar Altine said eight people were killed and 20 wounded by the bandits on Saturday, when they attacked his community and asked people to leave.

“We fled to Isa where we are living with no food or shelter. We don’t know what to do,” Altine told AFP by phone.

– ‘Firing indiscriminately’ –

Ahmad Abdullahi, who also fled to Isa, said the bandits entered his village and asked everyone to evacuate.

“They kept firing indiscriminately and seized money, foodstuffs and anything of value from residents,” Abdullahi said.

Turji, 31, dumped herding and turned to cattle rustling and kidnapping for ransom in 2011.

He fled his town of Shinkafi in Zamfara state for Sokoto state where he set up bases following extensive Nigerian military air strikes on his camps in December 2021.

The kingpin had made several peace agreements with Zamfara state authorities, only for him to renege and resume attacks on communities.

Turji is highly respected by his men and feared by communities he terrorises who believe he has supernatural powers which make him invincible, according to residents and security sources.

He took control of three districts where he imposes levies on communities and conducts deadly raids on those that fail to pay, sparing no one, including women and children, according to residents.

In February 2021, Turji appeared in a widely circulated video threatening to invite foreign gangs to destabilise Nigeria.

In January, Nigerian military conducted aerial bombings on Turji’s camps in Sokoto and Zamfara states, killing several of his lieutenants and forcing him to go underground.

“You may not need an iPhone 10 years from now as crazy as it sounds,” he said.

The Governor of Borno State, Professor Babagana Zulum, has banned the sale of alcoholic beverages in the state.

The governor made the announcement on Tuesday at the inauguration of a reconstituted committee on “revocation of illegal hotels, brothels, shanties, and criminal hideouts and curbing the menace of antisocial vices” at the council chambers of the government house in Maiduguri, the state capital.

Zulum also reconstituted and re-empowered the committee to purge the state of all forms of criminality and antisocial vices in the Maiduguri metropolis and surrounding environments.

The governor said the ban on sales and consumption of liquor and alcoholic contents stems from the rising cases of clashes among rival groups, cultism, prostitution, drug abuse, thuggery and theft, which have led to loss of lives and valuables.

He also co-opted the military, police, civil defence, and several other security agencies, including the civilian JTF, to join the committee for a holistic approach.

He also stated that former and current serving personnel of the Nigerian security forces have played a significant role in influencing the civilian populace into criminality, radicalism, prostitution and other vices, heightening terrorism threats in the state.

“I am happy to know that army officers are here, especially the military, police, and others are here because most of these activities were committed by whom? Some of them are dismissed army officers, dismissed security officers, current army officers, men and officers, including civilians.

“So, there should be no sacred cow in this matter if we want the Maiduguri metropolis and indeed the state to get rid of insurgency, terrorism and other sorts of criminalities,” Zulum said.

1. Unitarian Theists (Strict Monotheists)
Some Unitarian Christian groups emphasize God alone and reject Jesus as divine, though they may still acknowledge him as a historical figure.

2. Christadelphians
Believe in one God (the Father) only and reject the Trinity.
Jesus is seen as a human Messiah, but not divine or an object of worship.

3. The Church of God of the Abrahamic Faith
Worships only God the Father and does not consider Jesus as God.

Babafemi further disclosed that “another suspect, Lawal Idris Olasunkanmi, was also arrested the same day with 55kg of skunk during a raid at his base in the Mushin area of Lagos.”
