The Federal Capital Territory Administration has sealed divine hope orphanage and less privileged home in Kagini over allegations of illegal child trafficking and other child welfare violations.
Director of child development at the FCT Women’s Affairs Secretariat, Idris Attah, confirmed the action in an official statement, noting that the facility was shut to allow for a thorough investigation into its activities.
According to the statement, the proprietress of the orphanage, Grace Chibuzor, allegedly fled with an unspecified number of children to an unknown location without notifying the child development department of the FCT women affairs secretariat.
