An attempt to smuggle seven Nigerian girls to Burkina Faso has been foiled by Personnel of the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS), Lagos Seaports and Marine Command.

Malam Mohammed Saddiq, the Comptroller of Immigration, Lagos Seaports and Marine Command, who disclosed this at a media conference in Lagos on Friday, said the girls were intercepted on Nov. 12, at about 19.00 hours.

He made it known that the prime suspect, Miss Helen Dandam Nanbyen, 26, hails from Wadata village in Wase Local Government Area of Plateau.

Saddiq said: “The suspects have been under the command’s radar for about two months following intelligence gathered by our operatives.

“That led to their arrest by Badagry Marine Border Patrol Team along Pashi waterway bordering Nigeria and Benin Republic.

“It was uncovered, during the course of investigation, that the seven smuggled victims, whose ages range from 19 to 23, hail from Langtang North Local Government Area of Plateau.

“It is important to state that the girls willfully consented to the journey under false identities with intent to indulge in prostitution while in their country of destination,”

He, however, disclosed that the suspects neither had any valid travel documents nor financial means to sustain themselves during the trip.

The immigration boss pointed out that under interrogation, Nanbyen narrated her role in the illegal business and admitted her involvement in prostitution.

“She also admitted facilitating the transportation of potential sex workers into Burkina Faso.

“She said that it was with the support of her madam, an indigene of Edo, who operates a beer selling spot in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso capital.

“She also admitted working with one Miss Ella, who she claimed recruited four out of the girls, but is currently at large,” the controller stated.
