Simi: NAPTIP Commences Probe into Daycare Abuse Allegations

The Director General of the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP), Binta Adamu Bello, has ordered investigation into allegations of child molestation and abuse at a Lagos facility.

The development was as a result of old social media posts allegedly linked to Nigerian singer, Simisola Kosoko, also known as Simi.

In a statement released on X yesterday, NAPTOP stated: “The Director General of NAPTIP, Binta Adamu Bello, has directed operatives of the Agency to commence a full-scale investigation into the alleged child molestation and abuse in a day-care setting in Lagos, as deduced from the suggestive online post by a popular Nigeria singer.

“While appreciating the genuine concern of Nigerians on the matter, the Agency wishes to inform the general public that all its communication platforms are active and available to take complaints from anyone who may have been abused or violated on the said day-care.

“NAPTIP has launched a full investigation into allegations of child abuse at a Lagos daycare facility. Anyone with useful information is urged to come forward and report through our official channels. Child protection remains our priority,” it added.
