The Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NiDCOM) has repatriated 13 trafficked Nigerian girls from Ghana, bringing the total number of rescued victims since July to 163.

According to NiDCOM spokesperson Abdur-Rahman Balogun, the girls, aged 19 to 30, were lured to Ghana under false job promises but were subjected to exploitative conditions.

The operation was a collaborative effort involving the Ghanaian Anti-Human Trafficking Police, Rescue Live Foundation International, and NIDO Ghana, with NiDCOM’s support.

The girls, hailing from states such as Ebonyi, Benue, Kaduna, and Rivers, voluntarily surrendered after learning of earlier rescue missions.

NiDCOM Chairman Abike Dabiri-Erewa commended the coordinated efforts behind the operation, reaffirming the commission’s commitment to protecting Nigerians abroad under President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.

Rescue Live Foundation International/NIDO Ghana provided temporary shelter for the victims before their repatriation, ensuring their safety and reintegration.
