Troops of the Nigerian Army have arrested a suspected human tr@fficker, identified as Olushola Areke, in Lagos State.
Olabisi Ayeni, the spokesperson of the 81 division of the army, in a statement said troops of the 65 battalion operating under the 81 division arrested the suspect following actionable intelligence.
Ayeni said the suspect was accused of kidn@pping Fayoke Kunle, a 22-year-old daughter of one Ainor Kunle.
“Mrs Kunle claimed she had voluntarily entrusted her daughter to the suspect, who had promised to secure employment for the young girl in Oshodi, Lagos.
However, instead of heading to Oshodi as promised, the suspect moved Miss Kunle to Kano, where the victim later discovered herself and overheard discussions about being transported to Libya.
Miss Kunle courageously escaped from her captor and returned home on April 23, 2024.
In response to the report, the troops reached out to Areke, offering to entrust more people to her for job opportunities.
The suspect eagerly accepted the offer and was subsequently arrested at the designated meeting point, where she intended to pick up her supposed other victims.
Both the suspect and the victim have been handed over to the Ajah Police Command in Lagos for further investigation,” the statement reads.
