Police in Anambra State have arrested some ladies who feign blindness
and use rented kids to beg for alms. They were arrested by the taskforce
team of Anambra Ministry of Women Affairs, Social welfare and Children
Development. One of the suspects revealed that one Edith who hails from
Ebonyi state and is currently at large, brings the kids to them every
morning for them to rent at N1,000 per day. During interrogation, the
Commissioner in-charge of the Ministry was able to discover that the
kids don't even know where their real parents are. It is being
speculated that they are victims of kidnapping or trafficking. It was
also discovered that the group of fake beggars camp at Army Barracks,
Onitsha and none of them are from Anambra State. Most of them are from
Ebonyi, Abia, Kogi and Imo states.Police arrests fake blind beggars using rented school kids in Anambra State (Photos)
