The boy was reportedly abducted on Thursday in Ihiala Local Government Area of Anambra State and brought to Akure, the state capital, by his captors.

The Ondo State Security Network (Amotekun Corps) has rescued a three-year-old boy, Ifeanyi Emmanuel, from kidnappers.

The boy was reportedly abducted on Thursday in Ihiala Local Government Area of Anambra State and brought to Akure, the state capital, by his captors.

The child’s uncle, Chidiebere Okwuosa, who received the child on behalf of the family, said Ifeanyi went missing while his parents were away.

He said while his father was at work, his mother was attending a burial ceremony elsewhere.

“When we returned, we couldn’t find him. We searched the entire village with the help of a town crier and reported the case to the police, but there was no trace of Ifeanyi,” he said.

Hope was rekindled when the family saw an online report about Amotekun rescuing two children, one of whom was said to be from Anambra.

“We sent someone from Anambra to and, behold, it was our boy. He was all the way here in Ondo State,” Mr Okwuosa said.

He commended the professionalism and transparency of the Amotekun corps.

“Since we arrived yesterday, no one has asked us for a bribe. If it were elsewhere, they would be demanding money. We are truly grateful to the Ondo State Governor and the Amotekun commander,” he added.

Commander of the Ondo Amotekun Corps, Adetunji Adeleye, who confirmed the rescue, said that the boy was nearly sold off by a syndicate operating between Anambra and Ondo States.

“It was initially difficult to trace the boy’s parents, but through diligent investigation, we confirmed his identity.

“He will be handed over to his father once documentation is complete,” he said.

Mr Adeleye urged parents to remain vigilant, stressing the importance of closely monitoring their children and promptly reporting suspicious activities to the distress line.

He said although the family was overjoyed, Ifeanyi’s mother was still unwell due to the trauma of the incident.

Nice one by Amotekun... They're already proving to be more useful than the police whose only reason for establishing road blocks is for bribes.

The parents of this toddler should be arrested and sued for negligence especially the mother. So irresponsible! Leaving a little child unattended, who does that?!

What Agunechemba cannot do, Amotekun has done. Praise the Lord somebody.

Ifeanyi, I pray for you. May you not grow up hating the tribe that saved you from your wicked people.

May you not become a deficit to your country. Iseee.

I doubt your position on ESN, it wasn't for the same purpose. It was created to fight against the government, fighting insecurity was a smoke-screen, fighting against the government, you could easily tell from their mode of operation. They started attacking police, soldiers then went on the enforce sit at home, all the while receiving adorations from the SE folks. And now without a clear structure of leadership, they have gone fully on rampage.
Moreover it was not created by any known government, it was an individual establishment

ESN is even an illegal congregation of killers and the ultra-violent arm of IPOB.

What of Ebubeagu SE Governors rushed to form, simply to copy Amotekun, that has now been disbanded for kidnapping, extortion, extrajudical killing, robbery etc?

Yet Amotekun continues to exemplarily wax stronger as best, by far, of all regional security forces created to complement the NPF.

This is why I find it amusing some, rather than reflect on the myriads of problems they have, come here to demonize the Yorubas daily and 24/7 when the reality is that Yorubas have left them far behind and would indeed be a considerably developed nation in 2 decades if Nigeria were to adopt regional autonomy today.
