However, the boy never came back after attempting to collect the purchased items.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were looking for him everywhere, we went to the place he was supposed to buy the moi-moi and asked the lady selling.<\/p>\n<p>She explained that the boy was there earlier but the moi-moi was not ready, she collected N1,000 from him and asked him to come back later.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe explained that when he came back, he came with a man and the lady thought the man was his father, the man collected the moi-moi from her and they both left.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe said the man was putting on a white top and black trousers, dark in complexion. I told her we have been looking for him, and there after, we went to New Oko-Oba Police Division at Abule-Egba, to make entry, so that they can help me look for my child,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Ogbonna further explained that while they were still at the station, around 5.00 p.m., he received a call from another police officer, who said he was calling from Red House Police Station, Iju Ishaga.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Ogbonna said that the officer told him his son was with them and he should come to the station.<\/p>\n<p>He said he went there with three policemen from the New Oko-Oba Police Division, where they told the officer that there was a report of a missing child.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe police officer, who called me, said this is not a case of a missing child, but theft.<\/p>\n<p>The officer said the child stole two bags of rice. I asked, how can a 12-year old boy steal two bags of rice, I told the officer that we live in Abule-Egba.<\/p>\n<p>The police showed me a footage of two men and the boy, who went to the rice seller. The policeman said that the men bought two bags of rice for N180,000.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe officer said one of the men claimed that they had a church event and needed to buy rice. The man claimed he was the father of the boy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe asked the boy to wait at the rice shop, while he went home to get the money, he left with the two bags of rice in company of the other man,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Ogbonna said the officer explained that when the man did not come back with the money, the rice seller asked the boy the \u201cwhereabouts of his father who brought him there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy boy told the rice seller that he didn\u2019t know the man nor where he lived, they started beating him, calling him thief, while he was being beaten a man came up to his rescue.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey told him all that happened. They went to police station with my boy to report the case, that was when they called me. The Police said there was a CCTV Camera that captured them when they were coming to carry the rice.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey didn\u2019t show me where they were carrying the rice. The rice sellers insisted that I must pay for the rice, I told them, I can\u2019t pay for two bags, I will pay for one bag for my son to be released to me.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI paid N90,000 for one bag of rice. After that Police said I must bail my child, I told them how can I bail a child. They insisted, then I told them, I will leave my child with them if they refuse to release him to me.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI later paid N5,000 to bail my son,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Ogbonna left Red House Police Station for Oko-Oba Police Division, settling the missing child case with a N10,000 payment. Later, his son disclosed encountering a man on the way to buy moi-moi.<\/p>\n<p>The man requested him to hold his phone while washing his legs, but then hit the boy&#8217;s head, uttered incantations, and he lost consciousness.<\/p>\n<p>The Lagos Police Command is investigating, as confirmed by SP Benjamin Hundeyin, who also cautioned traders about fraudsters using innocent children to obtain goods.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cInsist that they leave with their brother or sister and bring the money before they can take any item,\u201d he counselled.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The suspected kidnappers allegedly seized the opportunity, taking the boy to buy rice from a foodstuff seller A 12-year-old Junior Secondary School (JSS-2) student, whose identity is withheld, was reportedly used by suspected kidnappers to purchase two bags of rice.
