The Anambra State Commander of the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP), Ibadin Judith-Chukwu, has raised serious concern over the growing cases of human trafficking in the state.

Speaking with reporters at her Awka office on Saturday, Judith-Chukwu described a disturbing trend where young individuals now enter into informal relationships with the intent of producing children who are later sold.

“In some cases, a young woman becomes pregnant, and the man suddenly proposes marriage. After the baby is delivered—often without her knowledge or consent—the child is taken and sold,” she said.

She pointed out that this practice is more common in rural communities, making public education and awareness campaigns critically important in those areas.

Judith-Chukwu noted that NAPTIP has taken proactive steps to combat the issue by establishing task forces at the state level to focus on specific local challenges.

“In Anambra, the task force on human trafficking has been active since 2020. It has implemented several public awareness programs aimed at educating people on the signs and dangers of trafficking,” she stated.

She further emphasized that both NAPTIP and the state task force are dedicated to informing the public about the deceptive strategies often used by traffickers to lure their victims.

Calling the crime “organized and calculated,” she urged traditional leaders, faith-based organizations, and other influential figures to support the agency’s efforts.

“We are collaborating with other law enforcement agencies, community groups, and religious institutions to ensure that accurate information reaches every part of the state,” she added.

Judith-Chukwu also highlighted the upcoming August meeting as an important opportunity to intensify sensitisation activities and reach more people across Anambra.
