Lady declared missing after falling into the hands of human traffickers has been found

A man who declared his sister missing after someone promised her a better life outside Nigeria has announced that the sister has been found.

Tunde Ogundepo, tweeting with @tunde_ogundepo on March 1 announced that his sister left home that day to an undisclosed location after someone promised her a better life in another country.

He further revealed that his sister told her friend that she was taken to Osun State to take an oath.

Efforts to locate the lady proved abortive. Text messages exchanged with her showed that was threatened not to disclose her location and not to back out of the arrangement to be taken out of the country or else she would die or go mad.

The latest information from the brother is that the lady, named Barakat, has now been found.

The brother took to Twitter to make the announcement. He wrote:

“Thank you all for your thoughtfulness, alhamdulillah they’ve intercepted her and others this evening before they could leave the country for Gambia. Thanks for your prayers and good wishes�❤️❤️❤️❤️.

“She’s just an omo odun merindinlogun (16 years of age) for that matter. And we’re not rich, but we see to it that essential needs are provided for these girls. She made the move when she saw a link online according to her. She got connected to someone who asked her to come to Iwo.

“She was then taken to swear oath with some others in Osun State. I had to track her location via her phone number to confirm if it was true she’s in Iwo as she stated in the sms sent to her friend and I found out she was truly in Iwo yesterday afternoon.

“We thank God all the money spent and stress we went through didn’t go in vain.

“I’ll drop her experience and share with us all once she’s settled.

“Thanks for the retweets and tags, it means a whole lot to me and I do not take it for granted��❤️❤️❤️❤️”
