The Director General of the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), COP Lydia Yaako Donkor, has engaged executives of the Nigeria Transport Association in Ghana to bolster collaboration in the fight against human trafficking.

The meeting is part of ongoing efforts by the Ghana Police Service to enhance stakeholder partnerships and preventive measures against crime.

She urged members of the Association to remain vigilant and proactive, stressing that their cooperation is vital to supporting law enforcement efforts.

The Deputy Director General of CID, DCOP Solomon Ayawine Aboninga, educated participants on key indicators of human trafficking, while the Director of the Anti-Human Trafficking Unit, DSP William Ayaregah, called for the prompt reporting of suspected cases for swift action.

Mr Prince Rotimi Adeye, Deputy Secretary of the association, assured the CID administration of the Association’s full cooperation and pledged to work closely with the Ghana Police Service to help curb human trafficking activities.
