Popular Nollywood actor and activist, Stanley Ontop, has raised serious allegations against the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP).
Accusing the agency of trafficking children from Delta State to Kano State, he shared a series of Instagram posts on Tuesday, alleging that on Sunday, June 15, 2025, some NAPTIP officials stormed the Happy Home Orphanage in Asaba around 2 p.m. with a white Hummer bus and allegedly took away children aged between 13 and 17 without proper documentation.
The actor claimed the children were later transported to Kano, where their identities were reportedly changed and they were allegedly forced to adopt Muslim names and practices.
Captioning his post, he wrote;
“Some group of notorious NAPTIP officials from Kano invaded an orphanage here in Asaba and carted away 8 children. The government, women affairs, the SSAs, and the first lady have not said anything about it. It’s only we, the activists, for Delta State.
They packed 8 children and took them to the North, changed their names to Muslim names, forced them to go to the mosque and read the Qur’an. If they refused, they were flogged like illegal refugees, and nothing has happened? Really? Omg.”
Supporting Ontop’s claims, the Chairman of Happy Home Orphanage, Christopher Nwokoye, also spoke in a viral video circulating on social media. He explained that he was not at the home when the alleged incident happened, but upon his return, he found a note reportedly left behind by the officials.
“When I checked the small paper that was left behind by NAPTIP officials, I saw NAPTIP Oka written on it. I rushed to D Division police station, but their DCO said they did not send any men to this orphanage. The next morning, I went to the NAPTIP office at the Federal Secretariat in Oka and met their head of duties. After I showed him the note, he told me it was not from them but from Kano,” he said.
