He further said all those rescued from human traffickers or received as illegal migrants that needed prosecution were charged to court, while others that were non-Nigerians were deported to their respective embassies and reunited with their families.

On various risks involved in human trafficking, Abba noted that there were personal and societal risks on their way to Libya and Italy, such as intimidation and harassment by the respective foreign country’s security patrols, while some traveling through the desert met their untimely deaths.

He advised those seeking greener pastures through illegal means not to become prey in the hands of over ambitious persons, who were ready to sacrifice their lives to achieve their selfish ego.

Abba who represented the Zonal Commander, Abdullahi Babale said NAPTIP Kano had secured 17 convictions from January 2023 till date.
