The Chairman, Nigerians in Diaspora Commission, Abike Dabiri-Erewa; tweeted the announcement on Thursday.
According to her
“The Lebanese Government just announced the arrest of Mr. Wael Jerro for onward prosecution against criminal sales of a human, a young Nigerian girl,”
Mr Jerro had advertised the victim, Busari Peace; with her Nigerian passport on a Facebook page, ‘Buy and Sell in Lebanon.’
He wrote in Arabic, “Domestic worker from Nigeria for sale with new legal documents. She’s 30 years old, she’s very active and very clean. Price: $1,000.”
The passport, which she acquired in May 2018, indicated that she hails from Ibadan, Oyo State
The incident generated outrage on social media, and Nigerians called for the arrest of Jerro and rescue of Busari.
Mr Jerro quickly deleted the facebook when he saw the reactions but his info and photos had already been saved by some facebook users.

Very good
ReplyDeleteAfter spitting on the mans act, teach the women to know their worth, most women will do the unthinkable for money, even here in Nigeria, the shocking thing is, these girls are living average lives, not exactly poor. Go to MCgalaxy IG page and see how low they can literally for money
ReplyDeleteYou are very dull.Its obvious this lady is a domestic worker who left Nigeria to seek for greener pasture in another country.Your comment up there portray her as a prostitute.
DeleteI don't blame this racist Arabs rather I blame our stubborn Nigerian sisters that can't stop going to their God forbidden countries to slave themselves to death despite all they see and read from the news. Allah asawakeee.
ReplyDeleteIf she had it easy in her home country, would she have thought of Lebanon? Obviously, an agent in Nigeria may have deceived her to go seek greener pastures thete.
DeleteOf course, blame the victim. Is that not what u jealous Nigerians are known for?
DeleteWhat is Allah asawakee?
DeleteThey sell human being? Who would have bought her and for what exactly?
ReplyDeleteI honestly don't understand this.
Anyway, glad the man has been arrested and great moves by facebook users.
There is no one as racist as Arabs and Chinese ppl towards black ppl. White ppl atleast still hide dere racism and wont directly show it. White racist see blacks as less than them,but you see Arabs/chinese dere racist see blacks as animals;like sub-humans. They are terrible.
DeleteAnd you see dem in African countries being worshipped. I hope after dis pandemic ppls eyes have opened a bit.
Wow man’s inhumanity to man
ReplyDeletewhat a wicked world we live in, for a $1000 you want to sell a human 🤦🏽♂️
Lebanese is synonymous to wickedness
ReplyDeleteChinese too.
DeleteHope he will be prosecuted and not released without charging him to court, these Arabs can be very funny and wicked
ReplyDeleteCan you imagine the scale of heartlessness. Auctioning a fellow human like wares.
ReplyDeleteLet's x-ray all the angles.
Commendable social media advocacy by Nigerians that drew the attention of government
Thumbs up to the Diaspora Commission for their swift response. We need further updates that Peace Ufuoma Busari has been rescued, returned and resettled in Nigeria.
Such timely intervention should be shown in other countries like Saudi Arabia, South Africa, India, Dubai etc where Nigerians are going through hell.
Finally, our government needs to do better. If Nigeria is flourishing, there wont be need for Nigerians to migrate to other countries. A whole Lebanon, asin LE-BA-NON. Please a standing ovation for our leaders for winning the Nobel prize for cluelessness, myopism and downright stupidity.
Very good. Such wickedness
ReplyDeleteHmmm...see the way he made the advert like he is selling a piece of item! Human being o! May God expose and deal with all these crazy people using humans as slaves. What an inhumane way of tagging a fellow human.
ReplyDeleteJust imagine the wicked man,a whole human being,someone's daughter he is auctioning like motor,Thank God he's been caught.Rubbish
ReplyDeleteMan's inhumanity to man! Slave trading in 2020
ReplyDeleteVery good.
ReplyDeleteThank God. I pray that the heartless man will not go unpunished.
ReplyDeleteThe heart of men is desperately wicked, man inhumanity to man.
ReplyDeleteThank God he was caught
This is how the Arab world treat others who travel to their country for work especially those from Africa, last week I watch a documentary on NTA Lagos. How in Kuwait human were being sold as domestic workers from one house to another, the victims said immediately they arrive their passport will be cease from them so that they can't run away from their inhumane treatment.
ReplyDeleteEven indians get their own too. My friend in the UK has been dating an indian girl for yrs now,they just got married. Do you know her whole family including siblings cut her off and stopped communicating with her just bcos she was dating a black guy. For 7yrs dey didnt talk to her. They just recently started talking after she got married and has a baby for the guy. Guess they see shes not changing her mind and they dont want to loose her.
DeleteVery good
ReplyDeleteGood riddance to bad rubbish....
ReplyDeleteWhat are Nigerian girls going to Lebanon and these Arab states to do?
ReplyDeleteThose who are reading this will still set sail even when they know it is
slavery that they are entering into. 😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏
Buy and sell a human? WTH! He is a psycho, good thing he has been arrested. Racist Arabs
ReplyDeleteGood move.
ReplyDeleteThere is a documentary on this sale on domestic servants on a large scale in Arab countries. They have two sites where they display them as well as other goods for sale.
ReplyDeleteA young underaged African girl was rescued by an NGO.
My suggestion is that The Chairman, Nigerians in Diaspora Commission, Abike Dabiri-Erewa should ENGAGE IN ENLIGHTENMENT CAMPAIGNS at the grassroots (in local dialects, pidgin) by partnering with NAPTIP, NGOs and the private sector in all states.
They should go to community meetings, markets, schools, on air (radio and TV stations) social media and disseminate information to the locals.
Word!!! Let the unenlightened ones understand the reality. Traveling abroad isn't an automatic ticket to success, as a matter of fact, you might be killed or turned to an animal especially in Arab countries.
DeleteAin't shut going to come out of the arrest, that's just for face value. Just get the woman and Nigerian domestics out of that hellish and hostile country.
ReplyDeleteHope it's not audio arrest.
