The Ghana Police Service has expressed grave concern over a rising trend of human trafficking, where Ghanaian citizens are being lured to countries within the ECOWAS sub-region under pretenses of lucrative opportunities.
In a successful collaborative operation with Nigerian law enforcement, Ghanaian authorities have rescued 66 citizens from a trafficking ring operating in Nigeria.
During a press conference in Accra on Monday, June 30, Director-General of the Criminal Investigations Department (CID), DCOP Lydia Yaako Donkor, revealed that the victims were linked to a trafficking network associated with QNET, a multi-level marketing company.
According to a report by citinewsroom.com on June 30, 2025, the rescue operation unfolded between May 19 and June 27, 2025, facilitated by crucial cooperation with Interpol.
