ONITSHA, ANAMBRA STATE — In a story that has left the entire nation reeling in horror and disgust, the Anambra State Government has swiftly moved to take protective custody of two minors following the shocking discovery of a livestreamed child exploitation ring allegedly run by their own mother!
Officials from the Ministry of Women and Children Affairs have stepped in to provide immediate psychological support and a safe haven for the traumatized children, prioritizing their wellbeing as police conduct a massive investigation.
The suspect, identified as 36-year-old Anulika Onyeanusia, was dramatically apprehended in Onitsha on September 10, 2026, after authorities acted on intelligence gathered from open-source internet investigations. The husband of the suspect is also undergoing interrogation to determine whether he has any connection with the alleged offence.
In a stomach-churning revelation, police allege the mother was actively using intimacy gadgets on the minors and broadcasting the horrific abuse to paying viewers on the internet. Authorities raided her home and successfully recovered the gadgets and other damning evidence linked to the abuse. Reports indicate that depraved viewers were paying premium fees of up to ₦100,000 for “VIP access” or custom-requested content broadcasted directly via WhatsApp.
When confronted by law enforcement at her doorstep, the suspect desperately attempted to lie her way out of handcuffs, initially claiming the sickening videos were “AI-generated”. As the irrefutable evidence mounted, her story quickly changed to a tearful plea for forgiveness, outrageously blaming “the devil” for her actions.
Police Public Relations Officer, SP Tochukwu Ikenga, officially confirmed the arrest, noting that a total of four children (aged two, three, six, and nine) were rescued during the raid. The suspect remains securely in police custody as investigators leave no stone unturned to uncover any other individuals involved in this monstrous crime.
A STARK WARNING TO ALL VIEWERS AND SUBSCRIBERS: YOU ARE NEXT!
As the details of this despicable crime go viral, furious Nigerians online are demanding that the police hunt down every single subscriber who paid to watch this exploitation. Child protection experts are sounding the alarm, reminding the public that consuming, requesting, or even passively receiving such abusive material directly funds the continuous torment of innocent children.
ABT NEWS brings you a critical legal warning: Ignorance of the law is not an excuse. Under the law, just having these videos on your phone makes you a criminal. Yes! And you risk possible arrest, pronto!
According to the Nigerian Cybercrimes (Prohibition, Prevention, etc.) Act of 2015, the law brings the hammer down on anyone involved in the child exploitation ecosystem:
- Production and Distribution: Producing, offering, distributing, or transmitting child pornography is punishable by up to 10 years in prison, a fine of up to ₦20,000,000, or both.
- Strict Penalties for Possession: Simply procuring or possessing child pornography in a computer system or on any data storage medium (like a smartphone) is a severe felony. Anyone caught possessing these horrific materials faces up to 5 years imprisonment, a fine of up to ₦10,000,000, or both.
- Unsolicited Messages: Even knowingly sending or forwarding these pornographic images to another person’s device is a criminal offense that can land you in prison for a year or cost you heavily in fines.
This high-profile case has reignited fierce calls from advocacy groups for the uncompromising prosecution of all involved, not just the creators, but the consumers fueling the demand.
To the subscribers who paid ₦100,000 to watch a mother destroy her children’s innocence: The authorities have the digital trail. The law is clear. You cannot hide. Gbaam!
