NIGERIAN SLAVES HAVE ORGANS HARVESTED, BODIES MUTILATED AND ARE SET ON FIRE, HORRIFYING PICTURES REVEAL

BY BEATRICE DUPUY ON 12/1/17 AT 11:40 AM

A burned corpse hanging upside down. Three men standing side by side with scars covering the wounds from their stolen internal organs. Human beings for sale.

These are the searing images of modern day slavery taking place across Libya, posted by a former Nigerian minister after a CNN investigation revealed that Nigerian migrants are being sold into slavery by smugglers for $200.

“Roasted alive,” tweeted former Nigerian Aviation Minister Femi Fani-Kayode. “This is what Libyans do to sub-Saharan Africans who are looking for a transit point to Europe. They sell them into slavery and either murder, mutilate, torture or work them to death.”


Fani-Kayode quoted a report claiming that 75 percent of those sold into the Libyan slave trade are southern Nigerians who have their organs harvested and their bodies burned or mutilated. Earlier in the week, Fani-Kayode had called out Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari for remaining silent on the trade of his people, but Buhari now says he is working to bring back stranded Nigerians in Libya and to discourage more Nigerians from fleeing the country.

“We will ensure they all return home safely and are rehabilitated,” he said.

But Fani-Kayode had a more drastic proposition for the country. He tweeted that Nigeria should go to war with Libya.

“If there were ever a reason or cause for us to go to war, the Libyans have provided it by enslaving our people and buying and selling them like Christmas turkeys and sallah goats,” he tweeted. “No human being deserves to be caged like an animal and roasted like suya meat. ”

So far, 242 Nigerians have been returned from Libya. A majority had been living in the detention camps, while others asked to be brought back home, according to CNN.

The United Nations Security Council met in an emergency session this week to consider applying sanctions and the full range of international law against the smugglers involved in the slave trade.

Celebrities are also bringing attention to the cause, including musical artist Pharrell Williams, rapper Common and civil rights activist Reverend Al Sharpton, who tweeted about the slave trade to their millions of followers.

FFK drawing attention to himself will not solve the problem. It is 99% a mindset issue. Those guys heading for Libya are not doing so for free. They pay hundreds of thousands usually. If they can be so intent to spend money to get into harm's way, the best thing to do is better policing of borders, arresting of traffickers, helping to ensure a proper government in Libya and putting pressure on it to ensure law and order to make this kind of madness less possible.

So, here is what is going on...

1. A person desperate to go abroad puts word out.

2. Soon the words get to the ear of an agent.

3. The agent makes contact.

4. Desperado and agent talk and come to terms on the arrangement.

5. Desperado is given a schedule, which might involve visit to a cultist for blood oath.

6. From the time oath is taken status change. Desperado becomes property to agent who is now responsible for all expenses of the onward journey abroad.

7. Agent has co-agents that work hand-off points between the local city and the Nigerian/Nigerien border.

8. Departure date is set. Multiple properties are put in a transport to Kano.

9. In Kano, they change hands. They are put in another vehicle for onward transfer to Agadez in Niger.

[One must wonder, at the border post, are these crossing vehicles and their cargoes checked? If girls of certain age bracket keep crossing the same point everytime does it not raise a red flag that something is odd?]


10. In Agadez they are transferred to Toyota Hilux Jeeps, built for the ruggedness of the sand crossing.

11. Many people...men, women, boys, girls are converged from the different West African nations and deposited at Agadez. There can be as many as 2,000 waiting to go to Europe. In their mind, they are halfway to Europe.

12. In Agadez, the tuaregs separate some beautiful young girls, some as young as 12 and rape them before they are transported out to Libya.

13. There can be as many as 200 Hilux or more in the convoy, lined for the rough trip. The passengers are instructed to hold on tight and not fall off. Many do fall off. Nobody stops...the trucks keep on moving and abandon the fallouts. They eventually perish in the desert...men, women, boys, children.

14. There are two transit points before Tripoli. Each rest point is more abuse and rape of girls and women, sometimes the men as well.

15. In Tripoli they are taken to depots from where they are sorted or sold.

16. That desperado that wanted to leave for abroad, if they are lucky to make this far and intact, will likely be handed off to a prearranged handler to smuggle them into Italy and enrolled on the street trade.


[What is in it for Italy? Why do they open their port to boats smuggling in prostitutes and labourers? How do the refugees they rescue end up on the streets? This is how societies shore up their own quality of living, by bringing in a new class of low income earners, who are desperate to labour at all cost in exchange for a lifestyle of opportunity and orderliness absent in their own background. When you bring in a new class of menial labourers your own kind move up in society and enter into midclass, which further move those previously in middle class up to aristocrats. Its all done through taxation....this is the trick for societies to earn huge gdp and become wealthy, through the labour of the low class. Italy is thus accomodating the black low class to be smuggled in as refugees and start a new cycle of tax generation]


17. So if that desperado that left their local city was female she'd eventually end up in Italy, after series of unpaid service being used along the way to Libya, in Libya where she might spend weeks or months before smuggled across to Italy where more agents await to recruit them and begin using the poussy as a bank deposit.


18. If the desperado was male...he might never make it past Libya to Europe. This is why returnees are mostly males and very few girls...

19. The girls that return did not have pre-arrangements to go into prostitution. Most are mogbo moya! They heard people are crossing to Europe by road and they believe if A can do it, why can't I? A probably did not share the entire story behind their access into Europe. So in Libya they dont have agent to cross them into prostitution in Italy and they dont have money. So they need money. They begin working in Libya and abandon themselves to fate. Many die there in Libya.



So the blame should start locally. The slavery started in a local city in Nigeria. Through a long drive to Kano and through the glaring eyes of our Customs and Immigration officers. Or maybe the smugglers avoid border posts and go through other routes.

What is going on in West Africa? The internet and hip hop culture has brought in a appetitte for glamour and living larger than life. Every boy and girl in a local village wants to go abroad and go to club and drive Range Rover and Jaguar.

Wahala dey o!

You cannot rescue someone that dont want to be rescued.

Most of these guys being sold knew what was involved but would rather take the risk than hang tight.

Govt on the other hand isn’t helping..

They won’t even admit that there’s a problem
