<p>Garba said that the aim of the programme was to inform the people, especially parents at the rural areas on the issue of child molestation and trafficking.</p>

<p>“But I am glad to tell you that with the level of our sensitisation, especially under my catchment area, which is Kano, Kaduna, Katsina, Jigawa and Bauchi States is yielding good result.</p>
<p>“Because since I assume duty as the Zonal Commander in September 2020, we experienced increase in complaints. This is a clear indication that people are becoming more aware of the agency and its function.</p>
<p>“Our main target is to sensitise them so that we can prevent the spread of such menace in our rural areas.” Desmond said.</p>
<p>In his presentation, the Public Relations Officer of the agency, Aliyu Abba said the menace has contributed badly to the current insecurity in the country.</p>
<p>Baba explained that the programme will assist the parents and the general public to know all the tactice the traffickers use to lure or deceit parents to engage their children.</p>
<p>“I want to inform you that sending your children, especially the girl child from villages to cities to serve as house help, contribute in denying them so many things.</p>
<p>“Especially, such can deny them right of education, good food among other many things. It also expose them to so many risks, especially sexual harassment and different diseases.</p>
<p>“Some of the children, after being disengaged from where they are sent to work in the cities, their way of life may likely change due the luxury life they experienced.</p>
<p>“Such can lead them to refuse to return to their parents in the village. And such can easily exposed them to men, drugs and other criminal acts.” He said.</p>
<p>He advised them to avoid being deceit by bad elements in the name of getting a work for their children within or outside the country.</p>
<p>Speaking to newsmen, some of the participants commended the gesture, saying it will assist them in guiding their children and communites to prevent the spread of the menace.</p>
<p>Garba Danladi, one of the participants said he had never engaged in such sensitisation training, describing the efforts as a battle to end the menace.</p>
<p>Another participant, Zainab Aliyu said the training it is a welcome development because people at the rural areas will get to know more on the ways to prevent such act.</p>
