The Nigerian lady, identified as Busari Peace, who was offered for sale on Facebook by a Lebanese, Wael Jerro, has been rescued.
Chairman, Nigerians in Diaspora Commission, Abike Dabiri-Erewa, disclosed this on Tuesday, saying Busari was with the Nigerian Mission in Beirut, Lebanon.
Recall that Jerro had offered Busari, an indigene of Oyo State, for sale at the cost of $1,000.
The post drew a lot of outcry on the social media, as many Nigerians called for the arrest of the suspect and rescue of Busari.
