The Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS) in Oyo State on Saturday said it rescued no fewer than twenty-eight victims of child trafficking between January and April this year.
Assistant Comptroller, Anti Human Trafficking and Child Labour unit of NIS, Foluso Akintola made this revelation in Ibadan, the state capital.

Akintola while speaking revealed that with the yearly increase in the number of rescued trafficked victims in Ibadan and its environs, Oyo state is becoming the hot spot for human trafficking in Nigeria.


Akintola who was a discussant at a book reading entitled “From frying pan to Fire”, said Nigeria is the only country that serves as source, transit and destination for trafficking.


He said, “The Immigration service in Oyo State has rescued several children of ages between 6 and 10 years. These are gross minors while many minors of less than 18 years old have equally been rescued in lbadan and its environs.

“These are mostly used as house-helps, shop attendants and vendors/hawkers. In 2016 we rescued 134 victims and arrested 38 traffickers, 107 end-users with 11 victims, 4 traffickers processed to NAPTIP.


“In 2017, 139 victims were rescued, 1 trafficker and 1 end-user were arrested and processed to NAPTIP. In 2018, 163 victims, 27 traffickers arrested while 1 victim and 1 trafficker were processed to NAPTIP.


“In the 1st quarter of this year 2019, 28 victims have been rescued, 8 traffickers with 12 end-users arrested.
