The cries of some Nigerian girls sold as as sex slaves in Mali have been heard in the ECOWAS parliament by the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons, NAPTIP.
NAPTIP Director-General, Julie Okah-Donli, while speaking at a presentation to members of the ECOWAS Parliament, revealed that the Nigerian girls were being sold for between N210,000 and N240,000 to work as prostitutes, Vanguard reports.
NAPTIP is seeking an agreement between Nigeria and neighbouring West African countries to end the practice of Nigerian girls being used as sex slaves in Mali.
Presenting the report of the fact-finding mission to Mali, Okah-Donli said that after being sold, the girls were made to pay back between N1.08 million and N1.2 million, usually within eight months, to their madams.
She said,
“There are more than one million Nigerians residing in Mali. About 20,000 of these Nigerians are girls believed to be victims of trafficking and the number increases by 50 per day.
“Many victims are deceived to leave their livelihoods in Nigeria for greener pastures in ‘Mali”
“Some of the victims are abducted from Nigeria, including those that arrive in school uniforms.”
“On arrival at the border town between Burkina Faso and Mali, many of the girls are sold off for CFA 350,000 to 400,000; their new owners then make them pay back about CFA 1.6 million to CFA 2 million with one CFA being 0.6 Naira,” she said.
Okah-Donli said that as part of efforts to curb the trend, the agency recommended among other things, that Nigeria should develop a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Mali, Burkina Faso, Benin Republic, Guinea and Senegal.
She said,
“There is need for comprehensive sensitisation of rescued victims before repatriation and a comprehensive blueprint worked out for tracing, empowerment and rehabilitation of victims”.

The Nigerian Prison Service in Kano state has arrested a woman, Rifkatu Anthony, pictured, for trying to smuggle 39 wraps of Indian Hemps into the prison.
The details of the arrest was contained in a statement released by prison authorities.
Read the full statement below,
The Intelligence Unit of the Nigerian Prisons Service (NPS) attached to Kano Central Prison has intercepted a female visitor, Rifkatu Anthony, for attempting to smuggle 39 wraps of Indian Hemps into the prison.
The suspect from Badawa Quarters in Kano metropolis cleverly concealed the hard drug in harmless packs with the intention to deliver them to inmates in the prison.
Upon interrogation, Ms Anthony feigned ignorance of the Illicit substance in her possession claiming that the items were given to her by one ThankGod for delivery to the prison inmates.
The Controller of Prisons, Kano, Magaji Abdullah, had commended the officers and men of the command for their untiring efforts in ridding the service of the menace of trafficking.
Recently, the Controller General of Prisons, Ja’afaru Ahmed, approved the the dismissal of prison personnel for aiding trafficking (smuggling) and illicit drugs into the prison yard for prisoners.
The action of the controller general was part of a concerted effort by the administration to continue to maintain discipline and ensure that inmates in prison custody were only handled by those with the required rectitude to do so.
“There is no gainsaying that exposing inmates to the use of hard drugs is an anathema to the reformation goal of the Prisons Service as it does not only precipitate health complications but also constitutes security risk to innocent lives in and around the prison,,” the statement noted.
Mr. Ja’afaru therefore, warned that any officer caught aiding or failing to apprehend smugglers will be shown the way out of the service as they have no business being in a character reformation agency. He had assured the public that the management of the NPS would remain irrevocably committed to sustain the peace and calm now existing in prisons across the country in order to enhance reformation and rehabilitation of offenders in prisons custody.
The singer stated that lies and deception come to some people easily, that they don’t know what is lie and true again. He further added that there will always be a consequence to pay, even though these people believe that there won’t be any because they have no conscience.
Iyanya who talked about Karma in his shade post for Ubi Franklin wrote;
For some lies and Deception come all too easily, it is done so often they don’t even know what is true and what is a lie.
They have no conscience and believe that consequences won’t apply to them..
This is the way of a coward. Rest Assured, I stand by my word and there will consequences to pay… KARMA
A Nigerian man, Peter Obi Kule, pictured below, has been declared missing in Lagos, after he reportedly went to meet with a client.
His cousin who announced the news on Twitter, said Peter left his home in Okokomaiko to go meet with a client in the Apapa area of the state. He however, never made it to his client’s office and his phones have been switched off since then.
Peter reportedly went missing one week after returning from his grandmother’s funeral.
Imo state governor, Rochas Okorocha, has said that the seizure of his Certificate of Return as the senator-elect of the Imo West senatorial district, is only getting him prepared for his grand political dream which is to become the president of Nigeria.
The governor who accused the elite class of ganging up against him, said that those who want me to go to prison will go to prison before me.
His words ;
“I tell you, I am the most criticised person in Nigeria today. I don’t know why the entire elite hate me with cruelty. My Senate ambition is still a battle. More than 30 people have joined the suit to fight me. All these, I will overcome. They are only preparing me for the glory ahead.”
Mark it, I will be president of Nigeria. I said this on this altar so that the kingdom of God will rise against those fighting to stop me. Also, those who think they will put me in prison will go to prison before me. They don’t want me to be at the National Assembly, but I will be there. I know I am the last man standing, but I will not give up.”
Cameroonian singer and whitenecious boss, Dencia has slammed Nigerian Actor, Mofe Damijo over his post on women going under the knife to impress society.
RMD had pointed out that seeking validation from others does not guarantee true happiness and he seemingly likened women going under the knife to enhance their looks and body to that statement.
RMD had written;
“Having been there and done that, I can tell you for free that weight loss, weight gain, butt enlargement, boob lift, marriage, buying/building your own house, having kids, wearing expensive clothes and shoes CANNOT make you truly happy.
Mostly, the things we do to show others we are beautiful, made, tough and/or connected are things that magnify our insecurities. A man who is secure in himself has no urge to flaunt wealth, I’m yet to see Alh. Dangote post a picture of his “machines” or of him “chilling in his private jet”.
A woman who is secure in her looks has no urge to go under the knife for enhancement, think Michelle Obama.
True happiness comes from knowing who you are (self discovery) and loving yourself, “even though…” Anyone who can live without caring about the validation of others is the one who has found true happiness.”
While a cross-section of his fans and colleagues in the entertainment industry agreed with his words, Dencia however had her own counter-view and she proceeded to the comment section to slam the veteran actor.
She wrote;
RMD is older than my dad, i mean 10 years older, i will be so embarrased if my dad was on the internet talking like this.
All these folks steady losing cool points cuz of Social media.
Parents need to stop this Social Media bants. Why are you 57 a man commenting about boobs and butt lifts ?
Truth is he ain’t lying, cosmetic surgery does not make you feel better about yourself, that’s why people keep going and doing it over and over, but still i don’t want it to be him talking like this.
Popular Nigerian Reality Star, Uriel Oputa is currently causing an uproar on Instagram after she took to her page to share beautiful photos of herself rocking a stunning N600,000 dress.

Super Eagles and Leicester City football player, Wilfred Ndidi who got married to his lover, Dinma lask week took to his social media to share these lovely photos from their white wedding.
The midfielder counted himself lucky after tying the knot with his bride as his caption read ; ‘I’m indeed fortunate.’
Nollywood Veteran actor, Richard Mofe-Damijo recently took to his social media page to write on finding true happiness.
In his piece, the famous actor pointed out that having some set goals such as weight loss, marriage, having kids, getting a butt enlargement or a boob lift cannot guarantee true happiness.
RMD said true happiness comes when one does not seek validation from others to live life on their own terms.
His post reads :
“Having been there and done that, I can tell you for free that weight loss, weight gain, butt enlargement, boob lift, marriage, buying/building your own house, having kids, wearing expensive clothes and shoes CANNOT make you truly happy.

Big Brother Naija star, Nina has reacted to the reports of her leaked DM where she plans to rent a Bentley for one month and fake that it was bought for her birthday just to break the internet.
According to the fair complexioned model, the chats claimed to be leaked is a fake – she claims that it all came after she unfollowed a blogger who decided to make up the story.
Nina reacts with posts she shared on her page.
See her posts below,
Nina’s supposed leaked chats allegedly exposed the reality star’s plan to break the internet and needed her close friend to share the number of a reliable car rental company where she could get a Bentley to cruise around with for about a month.
According to their chat, she needed to show off that she bought a Bentley for her birthday coming up on the 31st of May.
Controversial Nollywood teenage actress, Regina Daniels has been pictured in new snaps with her billionaire husband, Ned Nwoko and his kids.
The big happy family boarded his private jet to Asaba, Delta state today recently and while on it, they took lovey snaps which can be seen below.
The couple looked happy as they were surrounded by his kids from his 5th marriage to a Moroccan.
In other reports, the actress, was traditionally inducted into the Otu-Udu Group as the customary ritual of Anioma community, confirming her marriage to billionaire, Ned Nwoko today, May 26th in Anioma Community in Delta state, where her new husband hails from.
Budding Ghanaian actress, Purfcie Conna who once spoke with Potpourri where she said she’s okay with sex scenes, has revealed what seems like an anticlimax to that statement by sharing a picture of herself on Instagram with a cryptic caption,
“Being a virgin hasn’t been easy for me, temptations everywhere”.
A lot of people have tagged her statement a joke over the fact that she once set social media ablaze with her sensually voluptuous pictures.
She had at the time, accompanied the post with no funny emoji, meaning she was being dead serious.
“This type of bum, virgin? It’s like saying Tonto Dikeh has never given a head before. Absolutely impossible,” a user commented. And so did many, making reference to her curvy body she couldn’t have kept celibate all these years.
Controversial investigative journalist, Kemi Olunloyo has in a new video, said she’s forgiven actress, Iyabo Ojo despite the ordeals she passed through, which were allegedly masterminded by the actress.
Taking to her Instagram, Olunloyo mentioned that though it is hard to forgive and forget at the same time, she is willing to forgive the actress as well as Davido and other people that have hurt her in this life.
She wrote,
FORGIVENESS: I am letting go for CLOSURE. Iyabo Ojo and Davido are forgiven
Sometimes you can’t forgive but forget, other times you can’t forget but forgive. Today May 25th 2019 I am forgiving and forgetting those that have hurt me starting with Iyabo Ojo and Davido.
Iyabo Ojo
However in reaction to the statement by Kemi, Iyabo Ojo stated that she has no reason to be forgiven because she has not done anything wrong to her and she feels what the journalist needs most is to take a rest and not skip her drugs. She also says she needs help.
MOVING FORWARD
The truth is, unless you let go, unless you forgive yourself, unless you forgive the situation, unless you realize that the situation is over, you cannot move forward….. “Steve Maraboli
It is sad to announce that the lady, Adewura Bello, 26, a chartered accountant, who was declared missing on Twitter about 10 days ago has been found dead in a canal.
On the 16th of May, her family officially declared her missing after she left for work on the 15th of May 2019 and didn’t return home that day.
Her cousin, Benjamin who apparently announced that she was missing, took to Twitter to seek for help. While making the announcement, he wrote; “Help me RT please. We’re looking for my Cousin Adewura Belo left the house for work on the 15/05/19. We called to ask about her whereabouts by 7,she said she was at cement iyana ipaja axis then, all efforts to reach her till now has been void. Any useful info Call 09033335690 ?”
It’s been 10 days now, and Benjamin has given an update. Benjamin says Wura was found dead in a canal. Giving an update, He wrote; “Thank you all for the search. Adewura is Dead. Her Body found in a canal. The heaven has gained an angel. We depart to meet again ?? till we Meet again Adewura ???? Forever in our Heart God I am in pains ? but who am I the question you. Rip ?”
Another twitter user, @Otunbakush had written 4 days ago;
“So on this missing lady’s issue, heard some guys talking about a lady that got swept away around that mosan canal area during the heavy downpour on Wednesday, heard the lady was on a bike, the description of the lady match Wura’s identity. I heard people told the bike man not to pass there”
@Onaolapofarouq: Thanks for the search. Adewura is dead. “Negligence by the relevant authorities, as usual. An unnecessary death due to an open manhole during a storm. Manhole was left open but fully covered with flood, she and the bike man missed it due to bad visibility. She wasn’t aware.”
Former Big Brother Naija housemate, Nina’s Direct Message has leaked again and it reveals how the reality star plans to rent a Bentley and fake buying it for her birthday.
Her DM was leaked and it revealed her chat with a friend where she requested the number of a car hire company so she could rent a Bentley for a month and deceive her followers and the public that she acquired it for her birthday.
This certainly must be an embarrassing situation for the model as the chat details her plan to break the internet with the news that she bought herself a Bentley for her birthday.
Looking at the conversation, the person she was chatting with also encouraged her to package it very well so nobody will find out like Blessing Okoro who got busted recently for allegedly faking purchase of her home.
Funnily, Nina already knew the title of blog posts that would be made once the news hit the internet as she she wrote;
A Nigerian Doctor by the name of James King is being praised by several people online for saving the life of another passenger who collapsed on board a flight from Kano to Lagos on Saturday, May 25th. Narrating the incident, Dr. King stated;
“Its getting clearer now, …why I was born.
I just saved a life who would have possibly died midair in the aircraft I was a passenger in.
I was on seat 14F of BOEING 737-300 of AZMAN AIR from Kano to Lagos.
Suddenly, his head dropped.
A passenger on seat to my far left on the other side of the aisle.
The Indian man sitting besides him screamed and called the attention of the air officials.
The Indian said it seems the man passed out.
We were still several miles above sea level.
Far from Lagos our destination.
As it is with my nature, I was listening to some music with my earpiece on board this flight. I was rocking myself head forward and backward, my hands slightly moving up to the powerful music of SHOW US MERCY by Will Adiks.
The movements to the unconscious passenger got my attention.
I removed my earpiece.
In 5 powerful long strides I got to the dying patient.
To the Air Hostesses, “I am Dr James King. I want to take over. He is deteriorating fast.”
The Air Hostess said, “Ok sir. Go ahead.”
And she gave me way.
I quickly checked his pulse around his radial artery. It was small volume, irregularly irregular rhythm.
I shouted, “Any doctor, nurse or paramedic here?”
No response.
All the other passengers on board were staring at me with a forlorn look.
As if there was an impending danger to all of them.
I turned to the immaculately dressed 3 Air Hostess around me. “We can save this life together. His life depends on us now.”
I turned to one of the hostesses, “Can you please get us all the medical boxes and kits in this aircraft”
She responded, “Ok sir” and walked fast away.
I asked two other male passengers to help me lift the dying man from his seat to the aisle between the airfraft seats, …so I can have more space to start my intervention on him.
We placed him on the ground.
I immediate positioned him supine and also freed his respiratory airways by tilting his head backwards a bit.
I again asked, “please can I have any cloth or anything to support his neck.”
The air hostesses removed their top suits and handed them to me.
I was encouraged.
I folded two of them and placed them under the neck the of dying man.
At this point the dying man was already having rolling up eyes, …all white.
I listened to his apex heart beat.
It was very weak and faint.
I knew in seconds, he would be dead if I don’t do something fast.
I commenced CPR (Cardio-pulmonary resuscitation) on him.
He responded.
Then he began to convulse uncontrollably.
At the top of my voice, I shouted “Can someone get me Diazepam please?”
An air hostess ran somewhere to get it.
It was 30 minutes before landing.
If nothing was done fast he will die in less than 10mimutes.
I repeated CPR again.
And again. And again….
I listened to the heart using my stethoscope.
Some mild activity commenced.
I turned to the chief air Hostess, please call Murtala Mohammed Airport and tell then to arrange an Ambulance before our landing.”
She said, “Right away” and began to rush toward the cockpit to inform the Pilot to do so.
When I was sure the patient’s ventilation improved a bit, I quickly withdraw 5mg of Diazepam and gave him straight intramuscular on his buttocks.
Returned to the supine position again.
Commenced CPR.
Checked his radial pulse.
I then announced to everyone that… “I AM buying time. He will survive.”
I was on the floor of the aircraft kneeling around him.
Monitoring every single thing I can pick from his reflexes.
The chief air hostess came back.
I asked her, “How many minutes do we have more to land?”
She said, “in 5 minutes.”
I again announced to everyone on board, “HE will survive.”
Then there was a loud sudden noise in the aircraft.
Then we landed on the runway.
Three men/passengers carried him.
We evacuated him very fast out of the plane.
At the foot of the plane there was no ambulance waiting.
I was visibly angry and now shouting at the top of my voice to all the airport officials.
That the ambulance is at the other side.
In a rage I said to them, “This is wickedness. We did all our best with God’s help to keep this man alive for 30 minutes and you people could not even get an Ambulance to wait here?”
Someone suggested that he should be taken in one of the Toyota Hilux van.
I said “No, it will kill him before we get anywhere”.
I screamed, “Any clinic in the airport?”
That was when their brains came back to default reset and they chorused, “Yes.”
I said to the good men still carrying him let go.
That was when we rushed him to the clinic you are seeing in the photo of this post.
Its the airport clinic that is close to the Arrivals of the Murtala Mohammmed airport, Lagos.
I explained everything I did and the medications given to the doctor on call.
She took over.
Then I walked out and looked up to heaven and said, “I know You are involved in this. Thank you Lord.”
Addendum:
I actually came to Lagos for a humanitarian programme, an absolutely FREE Medical outreach that is poorly funded meant for the sick and abandoned Prison inmates at Kirikiri Prison.
Actress and mother of one, Tonto Dikeh took a break from all the drama as she stepped out for church service today and she looked quite stunning while at it.
The controversial actress looked as elegant as can be as she rocked a traditional attire… Sharing photos, she wrote,
Its Sunday let’s go give thanks to the lord for all he is!!We wakeup each day not knowing the battles he has fought for Us!!
Media personality, Toke Makinwa has aired her displeasure after a button from a new made in Nigerian furniture she got, came off.
The author who recently moved to a pent house in Ikoyi, engaged the services of Sandra Edoho, the wife of former “Who Wants To Be A Millionaire” host, Frank Edoho, to handle the interior design of her house.
It appears she is not satisfied with the work as she shared a ripped button from her furniture, calling made in Nigeria, a scam.
A little investigation also show that the duo have unfollowed each other on Instagram.
Two veterinary medicine students of the Michael Okpara university of Agriculture, Umudike, Abia State, have been reported dead after drowning in a swimming pool during a party.
Reports surrounding their deaths say their tragic deaths happened last night, during a birthday party at Kenvilles hotel, Umuahia.
