According to the service Public Relations Officer, DCI Sunday James who made this known in statement in Lagos on Saturday, four of the girls claimed to be traveling for employment without knowing their employers or being aware of the nature of the job they were going for.

“This discovery was made after intensive interrogation by NIS officials,” he said.

James, who noted that the shady journey was organised by agents who took advantage of the girls’ innocence and ignorance also disclosed that two of the girls had earlier claimed to be going for visit.

He stated further: “However, the two, later confessed they were going for hustle in Dubai. Another three, of the girls, claimed they were going to India for medical treatment without referrals.

“When further asked the nature of sickness they said yellow fever before they finally confessed to be going for hustle in India.”

The NIS spokesman said the girls were apprehended to save them from indignity to be faced from such journeys.

“The Comptroller-General of NIS, MM. Muhammad Babandede, therefore, called on parents to be wary of juicy offers for their children, from family and non family members to take the children abroad.

“Most of these trips are deceitful, camouflaged with employment, studies or visit which may end up in exploitation or death. Operatives at the various entry and exit points will never permit them departure.

“The NIS stepped-up clearance operation that is yielding positive result in the various arrest made at the borders of the country by NIS,” he added.
