The Nigerian Immigration Service, NIS, on Saturday, lamented the high rate of human trafficking in Oyo State, saying Oyo has overtaken Edo State which was hot spot for human trafficking before now. Assistant Comptroller, Anti Human Trafficking and Child Labour unit of the Nigerian Immigration Service, Foluso Akintola, who spoke at a book reading, written by Mr. Olusegun Adeniyi, the Chairman Editorial Board of the Thisday Newspaper, entitled: ‘From frying pan to Fire’ held at the Booksellers Limited, Ibadan, said Nigeria was the only country that serves as source, transit and destination for trafficking

Akintola, who said 464 victims were rescued in the state between January 2016 and May 2019, noted that the social vices is becoming rampant in Oyo State because there was no attention on human trafficking in the state, unlike Edo State where government and traditional rulers were paying attention to the menace. He said: “The Immigration service in Oyo State has rescued several children of ages between 6 and 10 years. These are gross minors while many minors of less than 18 years old have equally been rescued in lbadan and its environs.
These are mostly used as house-helps, shop attendants and vendors/hawkers. “In 2016, we rescued 134 victims and arrested 38 traffickers, 107 end-users with 11 victims, 4 traffickers processed to NAPTIP. “In 2017, 139 victims were rescued, 1 trafficker and 1 end-user were arrested and processed to NAPTIP. “In 2018, 163 victims, 27 traffickers arrested while 1 victim and 1 trafficker were processed to NAPTIP. “In the first quarter of this year 2019 between January and May, 28 victims have been rescued, 8 traffickers with 12 end-users arrested. “Occurrences of these businesses are more prominent in Oyo, Edo and Delta states of Nigeria. “They are now a major national problem for Nigeria. The fear in Nigeria of sudden disappearance of children and adults to migration and human trafficking is real and palpable. “The problems posed by these issues have far-reaching effects on Nigerian’s image to the outside world. Recent media reports tend to portray Nigeria as a major hub for illicit movements of persons. “Italy used to be the destination of most trafficked victims from Nigeria but with high mortality rate on the desert and the Meditaranian Sea in Lampadusa, the traffickers tend to have changed destination to the Arab world,” he said.

This northern Oyo state has some of d worst poverty rate,they dress like Hausa ppl,islam is too much there apart from ogbomosho all northern Oyo state is a cesspit with nothing but Islamic preachers and fulani herdsmen living there
Most of those smuggled end up as house help in kano or Kaduna,or in Arab countries
I've seen this myself many times

Trafficking for what purpose and to where?
Useless report.

See I'm Yoruba, but sometimes I use my brains and dont defend stupidity
Oyo is retrogressing and going backward
Don't compare oyo to anambra again
Nothing is special in oyo other than Ibadan and ogbomosho
Oyo should be split into four
Landmass of oyo is too much
Northern state of oyo right now is not good at all
Pls let's face reality sometimes

There is a reason y I put it like that
U may not understand

you are the first decent, responsible and truthful oyoruba man I have encountered here on nairaland!!!

its time you oyorubas had an honest in-house deliberation on where exactly your tribe is headed!!!

you guys cannot continue to sweep under the carpet the glaring retrogression your land is undergoing under the ever increasing islamist influence on your society and culture!!!

the only way to checkmate this negative trend is to pull out of zoogeria right now!!!

pull out and completely wall off your borders with the north!!!

make no mistake, there is a stealth jihad going on!!!

the fulanis conquered ilorin by force of arms but this time around, they are conquering more of your lands, not by war, rather by acculturization!!!

the fulanis have no other culture than islamism!!!

you guys had better team up with the rest of the south and resurrect the southern protectorate!!!

after we are separated from the shiithole then we can either come to a consensus on living together or very amicably go our different ways!!!

quit flogging the dead horse of "one nigeria"!!!

there can never be peace without justice!!!

the time to act is NOW!!!

the international interventionist invaders are soon coming to the shiithole to tear zoogeria to pieces and we, the great easterners, are SOO gone from the shiithole ASAP, AMEN!!!

First of all
When, Where did it happen

we biafrans are most ready and willing to accept the Christian majority areas of oyorubaland (ekiti, large portion of ondo, Christian edo etc), ONLY if you guys are interested, into our judeo-christian republic of biafra!!!

as majority Christians, we are our brother's keeper and we will not leave our oyoruba Christian brothers alone in the lurch!!!

the more Christians in biafra, the merrier!!!

Very simple, make Nigeria conducive for the youth. Give us the lifestyle and amenities of Asia not even Europe and watch the nation thrive. But steal steal no go gree una, and poverty stricken people are easy to manipulate.
