Ghanaian authorities have arrested 53 Nigerian nationals in an intelligence-led operation targeting suspected cybercrime hubs in the Greater Accra Region.
Nine of those arrested are suspected organizers of the network, while 44 others were rescued and identified as possible victims of human trafficking and cybercrime exploitation.
A joint security task force carried out simultaneous raids, recovering 62 laptops, 52 mobile phones, and two pump-action guns. The government said the operation was aimed at protecting Ghana’s cyberspace and international digital reputation while warning foreign nationals against falling for false job offers and quick-money schemes.
