…Advocates For Child Safety Measures
The Nigeria Police Force has acknowledged the public outcry in response to disturbing images and videos involving a 4-year-old child with the Instagram handle @officialsarah_ig, circulating on social media.
This was contained in a statement signed by the Force Public Relations Officer, (FPRO), ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi on Sunday.
The content portrayed the young child in inappropriate poses, akin to adult contents.
The Force expressed profound shock and grave concern over the apparent exploitation of this vulnerable child and unequivocally condemned such actions in the strongest terms possible.
Prima facie investigations indicate the involvement of the child’s father, who has been apprehended by the Police at the Auchi Divisional Police Headquarters, Edo State Police Command.
Every necessary measure is being implemented to ensure that justice is swiftly served.
As the investigation unfolds, it is imperative to establish proactive measures to guide and counsel parents, preventing the proliferation of such anomalies in our society.
In light of the above, the Force therefore emphasized the importance of implementing support systems for parents and guardians to protect the safety and well-being of their children.
It is crucial for caregivers to also prioritize the security of minors and seek assistance or guidance when required.
The Nigeria Police Force remains steadfast in its commitment to safeguarding children and upholding the law.
