Ghana Police Say 76 Citizens Rescued From Trafficking Camps in Nigeria Run Under QNET Name


Ghana Police Service Criminal Investigations Department Director-General DCOP Lydia Yaako Donkor said on June 30, 2025, that 76 Ghanaians were rescued in Nigeria between May 19 and June 27 in operations with Interpol and the Nigeria Police. Police said the victims had been lured with promises of jobs in Europe and Canada, football contracts or visa assistance under a scheme linked to the QNET name.

According to police, 30 victims were rescued in Akwa Ibom State on May 19 and 15 in Oyo State on June 22, and seven Ghanaian suspects are in custody in Nigeria. Victims had their phones and travel documents seized and were forced to call relatives to send money. Separately, police said 48 foreign victims were rescued in Ghana between May 6 and May 26 and two suspects were arrested.

Police said suspects would be prosecuted under Ghana's Human Trafficking Act, Act 694. QNET has repeatedly said that individuals using its name to run job and travel schemes are not affiliated with the company, which describes itself as a direct selling business that does not offer jobs or visas.
