Human trafficking: Why Buhari should probe Ngige’s ministry – Rep member, Akande-Sadipe
Akande-Sadipe said the federal government should probe the ministry for illegally issuing intentional recruiters licences which have paved the way for trafficking of Nigerians.
In a statement to DAILY POST by her spokesman, Olamilekan Olusada, Akande-Sadipe appealed to Buhari to initiate an executive investigation into the activities of the Labour and Productivity ministry. She noted that many nations in the Middle East and even within Africa were violating the rights of our citizens under the guise of domestic servitude.
“These agents collect $1000 plus the first 3 to 6 months salaries of the girls and abandon them to their plight in the foreign nations. The trafficked girls, unfortunately, are ignorant of the ills they may face abroad and are lured by the agents because they seek a better life”.The lawmaker also revealed that these agents lie to the ladies about the jobs waiting for them in foreign lands, urging Nigerians to move away from the perception that the girls left these shores to prostitute.
“In addition, the Ministry has not been complying with laid down policies and procedures for international recruitment. For example, Agents’ pre-licensing procedures contravened the requirements of doing business with Federal government MDA’s”, she added.
