Togo (nigerian) Man Admits Smuggling Girls To Nj Hair Salons by Kobojunkie: 11:48am On Aug 27, 2009
NEWARK, N.J. – A man from the West African nation Togo has admitted his role in the smuggling of dozens of girls and women who were forced to work at hair braiding salons in New Jersey.

Lassissi Afolabi pleaded guilty Wednesday in federal court to conspiring with his ex-wife and others to commit forced labor and related crimes in Newark and East Orange, where he lived.

Afolabi has been held without bail since his arrest in September 2007. He could face up to life in prison when he's sentenced Dec. 8.

Prosecutors say between October 2002 and September 2007 at least 20 girls and women were taken from Togo using fraudulent visas. The girls were forced to work six or seven days a week and to turn over all of their earnings to the defendants.

He is Yoruba. You guys should just own up and stop being in denial. That he is Togolese (if indeed he is) does not affect his Yoruba[b]ness[/b].

Why do moderators allow threads like this to thrive in politics section?. Are they getting bored with their job or is difficult to transfer it to the crime or tribalist section?.
Nigeria is on fire and poor citizens are busy chasing tribal supremacy.

Lol sorry i dont want to make you look like an Ass but i have to

The Yoruba tribe live on the southwest coast of Africa in Nigeria and can also be found in the eastern Republic of Benin and Togo. The majority of the slaves brought to the Americas were from West Africa, Yoruban descendants can also be found in Brazil, Cuba etc . . . .
http://www.forafricanart.com/Yoruba_ep_35-1.html

Yoruba land extend beyond the boundaries of Nigeria into nearby countries like the republic of Benin, Togo, and mid-eastern Ghana.

The language is the pride of the Yoruba people with over 22 million speakers. The language has also been noted to be spoken within other languages in neighboring countries such as Benin and Togo. Traces have also been found in Sierra Leone where it’s called ‘Oku’ and in Cuba where it’s called ‘Nago’. It is argued that traces of the language can also be found in communities as far away as Brazil

You know yorubas actually conquered other tribes and expanded their kingdoms in precolonial times
