Dabiri-Erewa noted that while progress has been made, more needs to be done. She stressed the traffickers should be named and shamed while enforcing stricter penalties as a deterrent to other criminal actors.

She said NAPTIP cannot work alone and called for closer collaboration with NiDCOM, the National Commission for Refugees Migrants and Internally Displaced Persons (NCFRMI), and other sister agencies, to curb the menace

She also pushed for more flexible policies and better funding to help NAPTIP to fully carry out its mandate against the menace.
