Two Nigerians Arrested In Ghana For Kidnapping And Human Trafficking by Sakamaje: 4:12pm On Jul 14, 2020
The Central Regional Anti-Human Trafficking Unit (AHT) of the Ghana Police Service (GPS) has arrested two Nigerians at Gomoa Pomadze on suspicion of kidnapping and human trafficking.

According to police, the suspects, Paul Okafor and Duru Favour, are said to be engaged in kidnapping and trafficking of young Nigerians to perpetrate cyber-crime activities in the country.

Briefing the Ghana News Agency (GNA), DSP Irene Oppong, Regional Police Public Relations Officer and Head of the AHTU, said 39 victims, all Nigerians in their twenties, were rescued in the process.

She said on Sunday, July 12, at about 1100 hours, the Winneba District Police Command, acting on information, dispatched a Police Patrol team to Gomoa Pomadze, where they met a 21-year old Nigerian, Charles Ikorohk in the company of three Ghanaians.

She said Ikorohk told the Police team that he arrived in the country from Nigeria on Wednesday, January 22, to visit a friend but could not trace him.

He said he got stranded in Accra where he met one Uzo at the Kwame Nkrumah interchange area, who later introduced him to one Arisuezo, also a Nigerian.

She said Arisuezo brought Ikorohk to Winneba and kept him in a walled house together with other young men from Nigerian.

According to DSP Oppong, Arisuezo prevented his captives from leaving the compound and subjected them to all forms of inhuman treatment and also engaged them in cyber-crime activities.

She said Charles managed to escape on Sunday, July 12 about 0800 hours when he was tasked to weed the compound of the house while their supervisors went out with one of the victims to a Mobile money vendor to withdraw some cash fraudulently received.

She said the police, after receiving a tip-off, quickly went to the house and rescued the 39 Nigerians and arrested the suspects.

Thirty-six laptops were also retrieved from the house. DSP Oppong said the owner of the house was arrested and given a police enquiry bail while investigations were ongoing to arrest Michael Arisuezo and his other accomplices.

I can swear with my left hairy balls, I wasn't disappointed. cheesy

One thing that always make me laugh uncontrollably is that, whenever Nigeria's battered image is being discussed, ipob miscreants will be all over the social media screaming Buhari.

The excuse usually tendered is that "Buhari damaged Nigeria's economy", lol.

So Buhari damaged Nigeria's economy and you went abroad where milk and honey flows, yet still find yourself committing crimes. undecided

Such is the height of poppycock.

When I heard human trafficking I thought the skull miners have exported their trade abroad from brown roofed areas, taking grown up men to go and hustle using ICT should not be described as human trafficking but unlicensed cyber operators cool
