A trafficked Nigerian girl in Lebanon has been released by the Nigerian Diaspora Commission (NDC).
Chairman of NDC, Abike Dabiri-Erewa disclosed the development on her Twitter page on Monday night, even as she announced that the trafficker has been arrested.

The post read: “Breaking news. Update on the viral video of trafficked Nigerian girl in Lebanon. She is now happily in the hands of the Nigerian Amb in Beirut, received warmly and happy to be in safe hands. She will be home soon by Gods grace.
“Ajayi Omotola is now in the safe hands of Amb Goni Modu Zanna Bura, the Nigerian Ambassador in Beirut, Lebanon.
