The Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) has rescued seven Nigerian nationals who were allegedly trafficked into Ghana and coerced into cyber fraud operations.
The rescue mission was carried out on Friday, November 14, 2025, as part of EOCO’s ongoing Operation LIFELINE.
During the swoop, officers arrested 10 individuals, three suspects and seven victims, all Nigerian nationals. The victims, aged 17 to 30, were reportedly lured to Ghana with promises of legitimate employment but ended up being subjected to harsh, exploitative conditions while carrying out online fraud schemes.
EOCO urged the public to remain vigilant and report suspicious activities through its hotlines and law enforcement channels. The agency also cautioned landlords to thoroughly verify the backgrounds of foreign tenants before renting out properties to them.
It further warned that persons found engaging in or facilitating cybercrime will be pursued and prosecuted, reaffirming its commitment to tackling organised crime and protecting vulnerable victims.
