14 Teenage Prostitutes girls aged betweenof 13 and 20 were arrested during a raid on a brothel, Temiogbe, in Akute area of the state.
Spokesperson for the command, Mr. Muyiwa Adejobi, said that the brothel not only harboured commercial sex workers but also served as a hideout for hoodlums in the area.
He said, “Based on recent directives to the force given by the Commissioner of Police, Mr. Nicholas Nkemdeme, to embark on constant raid of black spots, the policemen attached to Ajuwon Division, led by the Divisional Police Officer, Mr. Isukkekhe Oisamaye, carried out a raid on the brothel.
“The ladies will soon be handed over to the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons for necessary action.”
Adejobi said criminals who did not change their ways would face the full wrath of the law, adding that parents and guardians should monitor their children and wards closely so as to prevent them from taking to crime.
