The National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP) has successfully rescued a two-year-old girl who was trafficked from Abuja to Aba and sold for N100,000.
A statement by the agency on Friday said the suspect, arrested by the Department of State Services (DSS), allegedly sold her for N100,000.
The statement read, “A 2-year-old girl, renamed Chiamaka Favor (alias), who was trafficked from Abuja to Aba in February 2025, has been rescued by NAPTIP Abia Command on May 8, 2025.
