NIS hands over three rescued Rivers under-aged girls, recruiters to NAPTIP

Comptroller of Immigration, Rivers State Command, AJ Kwasua, has handed over three girls within age bracket of between 16 and 17, rescued from a failed journey to Ghana for prostitution to the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP), to reunite with their families.

The Comptroller said the girls were rescued by men of anti-human trafficking unit of the Command at a popular joint in Port Harcourt on November 4.

Kwasua, who briefed newsmen at the Command Headquarters, yesterday, explained that it was the proactiveness of its officers that led to the arrest of a nursing mother, who is the suspected recruiter, aged 21, and a transporter, who facilitated the travelling.
