 210 beggars apprehended as crack down on scavengers, one-chance begins in Abuja


With the commencement of Operation Sweep Abuja, no fewer than 210 miscreants, street beggars, traders, scavengers and other criminal elements, have been apprehended by the Federal Capital Territory Administration, FCTA.


The 210 beggars comprising of 80 men, 58 women and 72 children, have been camped at a rehabilitation centre in Bwari.


The scavengers, ‘one chance’ syndicate and other criminals who were also apprehended have been handed over to the police.


This was disclosed in Abuja by the Acting Director of Social Welfare, Social Department Secretariat of FCTA, Mrs Gloria Onwuka, on Thursday.


She disclosed that some unidentified individuals imported the children from Kano, Katsina, and other states into Abuja to beg and handover the proceeds to them.


Onwuka, however, disclosed that after being profiled, the children would be deported by to where the came from.


“Begging is now run like a business. People will go and hire people’s children from other states, put them in vehicles very early in the morning, come to Abuja and start begging.


“The families they are hiring these children from don’t even know that this is what they are using their children to do.


“We have caught so many of them like that.


“Also, some of the beggars will even tie a bandage on their legs claiming injuries but it’s all lies.


“There is a woman we caught who claimed she has cancer of the breast, but when we loosened the bandage, there was no single wound on her breast,” Onwuka said.
