Abuja, Dec. 13, 2018 (AltAfrica)-It was a moment of uncontrolled joy of motherhood after the Public Complaint Rapid Response Unit in the Nigeria Police, PCRRU reunited a mother with her daughter after two years of forced separation.

Alternativeafrica.com understands that the little girl was forcefully taken away by the father who relocated to South Africa leaving the girl in the company of a close relative in Nigeria

Assistant Commissioner of Police, ACP Abayomi Shogunle corroborated the story when he narrated how the police got involved the entire traumatic episode at the reunion ceremony, Police Headquarters, Abuja. 

According to Shogunle,  on the 5th of December, 2018 at about 11:00am one Ms. B (full name withheld) came to the PCRRU and narrated how her little daughter was forcefully taken away from her by the family of her estranged boyfriend and father of the little girl who has since relocated to South Africa.  

“During the process of this traumatic ordeal in 2016, the said family boasted that she would never be allowed access to her daughter again, after which her daughter was taken to Kaduna, Kaduna state to stay with the grandmother. 

“She also stated that all efforts made to see her daughter proved abortive as she was threatened with violence, and that she had also reported the matter to various authorities with no positive response 

“Her complaint was recorded as a distress call and Tracking No. PCRRU931805 issued. The case was immediately forwarded to the Officer-in-Charge of Juvenile and Women Centre (JWC) of the Kaduna State Police Command to investigate and ensure a decision is taken in the best interest of the girl without further delay. 

The joy of motherhood. Nigeria police reunite mother with 4-year-old daughter after two years of separation

“Within five days, the JWC was able to bring all the parties together during which it was discovered that the little girl was more interested in being with her biological mother and not her grandmother. 

“Advise was also sought from relevant experts and it was decided that this 4-year-old girl be released to her biological mother considering the fact that her father has relocated from Nigeria as Ms. B was also discovered to be a responsible and working class woman.

“On 12.12.2018 (exactly one week after the complaint was received), an elated Ms. B visited the PCRRU, Force Headquarters, Abuja in company of her little daughter to express her joy and happiness over the swift response of the Unit in “helping her to get justice and helping the helpless people in the society”. 

“She also thanked and prayed for the Inspector-General of Police, IGP Ibrahim Idris and the entire officers and men of the Nigeria Police Force regarding the good work they are doing across the country”, 

ACP Shogunle said members of the public can reach the PCRRU 24/7 via; Calls Only: 0805 700 0001, 0805 700 0002 | SMS and WhatsApp Only: 0805 700 0003 BBM:58A2B5DE | Twitter: @PoliceNG_PCRRU |Facebook:www.facebook.com/PolicePCRRU  |Email:complaint@npf.gov.ng OR PolicePCRRU@gmail.com| Website: www.npf.gov.ng/complaint to report police misconduct or when in distress.
