I remember reading a novel in the early two thousand that said the next business in the world was going to be sales of organs. In the early nineties girls were coming from all the neighboring countries to Nigeria seeking for agent that will take them abroad, then it was Italy, I remember that in every family in Cameroon south west and Nigeria particularly Edo state had at least one daughter in Italy. Married women also left their matrimonial home to go for greener pasture in Italy; little did they know what awaited them, the agent who organizes their travelling feed big on them.

Condition of work

According to their stories the agent provided the passport, the wears and accommodation and the ticket money, when they got to Italy they were either sent into prostitution homes or farms depending on their looks. Once they are in Italy their passport are ceased and they are giving condition of how they are going to repay whatever was spent on them for three or four years, during these years they are supposed to obey and not argue or complained. Among the women that traveled abroad not many went voluntary some were deceived and told that they were going to work abroad and make a lot of money to support their family none were told that they were going into prostitution or hard labor in farms.



Work without pay

Day and night their jobs was to sleep with any man they were asked to, they had no choice, at the end no money was paid to them the owner kept everything, Dresses were bought for them and medical care was provided for them with food of course, many on realizing this is what they were brought abroad for rebelled. Rebellion brought severe beating and punishment which means you are forced to sleep with several men a day without eating and still receive beating. The rejected ones after several punishments were sent to work in farms. Meanwhile the money that you earned through this very difficult situation might never be paid to you, or you might be under paid, or be indebted to them forever, or till when they can’t be used for sex anymore, the payment is ever complicated. You are not allowed to go out to visit places; you are not allowed to get close to any client, if a client demand for you twice they become suspicious, you are not even allowed to communicate with your family; they are that wicked, even olden days slaves were treated better than these lady’s.
