Today, we remember the little 3-year-old girl, (as reported by us last November) that was kidnapped exactly a year ago around Kuje area of Abuja, Nigeria.
Nana Kadija, as fondly called by her parents was snatched from her father's hands on their way way from school on an unfateful afternoon last November. Her father, Umar Sulaiman, quickly took to Facebook to announce the sad incident, imploring people to assist in finding his daughter.
A year after, the little girl is yet to be found and her parents still yearn for her return. A month hardly pass without the father putting up a post about her on his Facebook page. According to some posts on her father's facebook page, the father narrated some similar incidents in the same area. Below are some of his statements.
"I performed my Jummat prayer at Kuje, after the prayer the Imam announced the abduction of a boy on Tuesday. While yesterday Thursday 16th Nov. two boys aged 3 and 5years were abducted at Karmo. Well, like I always tell affected parents, we are on our own. Until the high and mighty in the society is affected, they will always look the other side.
"It is exactly a year today and still no sign of you." - 19th Nov.
"I know some people are aware of the 25 rescued children from a false orphanage in Gwagwalada. The police in kafanchan intercepted two cars conveying those children. On interrogation the drivers say they were asked to deliver them to an orphanage at Gwagwalada. So the kafanchan police had to bring them and the children so they could identify the said orphanage. All the children there were taken to Gwagwalada police station where two parents were about to identify and collect their children, while others were returned back to kafanchan. I traveled to kafanchan on Sunday to see if I could my Khadija. She is not among them. But some thing struck me. I was able pick the face of a little girl among them I have seen somewhere. Yesterday, I was able to remember the face. Sometime in December last year when I was going from orphanage to orphanage looking for my daughter, I saw this very girl and others. The condition in the said orphanage, where I saw two pregnant women among the children raise my suspicion. I reported to my IPO, at force head area 10 of my findings. He said since I didn't find my daughter, I shouldn't report to the DCO. Now, it is that very orphanage that is in the center of the 25 rescued children. I come here to let the general public know so that those involve in this abduction and sale of children no matter how highly placed they're will be brought to justice. I also know some orphanage with some questionable motives, but if only there is a dedicated security persons who are wiling and ready. Khadija, the pain of been without u, will be for life. My happiness evaporated with ur abduction. GOD'S judgment will be the best for ur abductors in this world and hereafter. Just thought of u and tears follow freely.
Umar Suleiman believes that there's a woman heading the kidnappers syndicate, a few days ago, he said "This evil woman and her syndicates who specializes in the abduction of children between the ages of 1- 5 years are back. About six days ago she abducted a 2year old girl in Mararaba. A week before it was a little boy at Masaka. She has caused so much pain to me and my family. And seeing her causing more pain to other families is making me go crazy. Since the inspector general of police has failed to apprehend these syndicate,we the affected parents have decided to do what ever it takes.
He also implores people to be on the look out, he added, "Please they usually operate on weekends. While on week days they target children go islamiyya schools between 4 - 6pm. I will be going to seeing the families of these two recently abducted children, I will keep you posted." he said.
