The Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NiDCOM) has confirmed the rescue and repatriation of three more Nigerian girls who were trafficked to Ghana.

According to a statement signed by the Director of Media, Public Relations and Protocols Unit, Abdur-Rahman Balogun, the girls—identified as Divine, Favour, and Bright, aged between 17 and 19—were lured into prostitution by their aunts, who had deceived them with promises of gainful employment in Ghana.

Speaking at the NiDCOM office in Lagos, where the girls were formally received before being handed over to the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP), NiDCOM Chairperson Hon. Abike Dabiri-Erewa condemned the persistent silence surrounding traffickers.

“Until we begin to name and shame the perpetrators of this modern-day slavery, human trafficking will not end,” Dabiri-Erewa stated.

She expressed appreciation to Chief Callistus Elozieuwa, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of NIDO Ghana, for his continued collaboration with Ghanaian security agencies in the rescue of victims. She also commended the Nigerian Embassy in Ghana for its consular support and the First Lady, Mrs. Oluremi Tinubu, for facilitating the girls’ transportation back to Nigeria.

According to the statement, more than 169 Nigerians have been repatriated from Ghana in recent months—highlighting the ongoing threat posed by human trafficking networks.

The rescued girls, who are from Bayelsa and Ebonyi States, are currently in the custody of NAPTIP for profiling and rehabilitation.
