Adaralewa explained that the NSCDC patrol team rescued a 12-year-old boy seen wandering around Lameco Area in Osogbo at about 11pm on Thursday.
“The boy said he ran away from his guardian’s house due to inadequate feeding, alleging that the guardian only fed him twice daily and that he doesn’t get satisfied.
“Upon reuniting him with his guardian, it was revealed that the boy has a high appetite, and no matter the quantity of food given to him, he remains unsatisfied,” the statement added.
Adaralewa also stated that on Saturday, another 8-year-old girl was found wandering at Apara Area, Osunjela, Ilesha Road, Osogbo and was taken to a nearby NSCDC office by a good Samaritan.
“She was later reunited with her parents,” he further stated.
