‘10,000 Nigerian girls forced into prostitution’ – Nigerian Ambassador reveals
Ramatu Ahmed, the Nigerian Ambassador to Burkina Faso, says no fewer than 10,000 Nigerian girls are forced into prostitution in the country.
“And most of these girls are underage; most left schools and are roaming about doing commercial sex work in Burkina Faso. Ahmed condemned the activities of Nigerian syndicates operating in Burkina Faso, vowing that the embassy will continue to track them down and bring the perpetrators to book in collaboration with the local authorities.
“The IOM is complaining to the embassy that most of its money meant for West Africa is used to repatriate Nigerian girls back home and they are complaining that with time, they would not be able to cope with the number.
