lacasa: i suggest denying visa & entry to the nigerian females coming from the southern part of the country.


This will go a long way in eradicating this

They transported the women overland to Morocco and then smuggled them on small wooden boats into Spain

So even if you deny visas they would still get in the country, read before you comment!

Some Nigerians are bloody racist to themselves. I thank God, Ibo girls no dey do this, no, nah Benin girls get the business, na lie, na Yoruba people promote the trade, you too dey lie, na Hausa people dey behind the racket!! When are going to stop stereotyping and criticizing ourselves?! Is it not shameful to us that the international community knows some useless girls from Nigeria are polluting and messing up their system?! What we should be concern about is finding a way at home to destroy the prostitution and enslavement racketeering cartel not blaming each other. It's a shame!!!

mikidoo1: As much as this practice has found a home in a certain tribe, it should be noted that the high rate of poverty has pushed some young ladies with little regard for morals into this trade and of cause their parents share a part of the blame. So sad
Greed, nothing but greed as well as the quest for quick riches. It's sad

Whether its a bini prostitute, Tiv, Ibo, Idoma, Fulani, kanuri et cetera. They are all Nigerian classified prostitutes in the international community. The fact they are operating internationally makes them grade A, classical prostitutes. Lets find a lasting solution to this hydra-headed scourge rather than stereotyping ethnic groups.

a1solution: One thing I noticed in Nigeria is that if you are not rich people regard you as nonentity that is why at times even the good ones will be so frustrated and turn to crime. God save The Fedferal Republic of Nigeria.


Poor people are nonentities everywhere in this world. Nobody notices the poor person waiting to take a bus (unless they are eye catchingly sexy), but everyone notices the person in posh car.

The problem with Nigeria is that there is no safety net. If you are poor, you are most likely to suffer all types of financial hardship. Hunger and debt will be your best friend. As you marry, have children and get older, your problems increase. The pride and confidence of your youth will slowly disappear and will be replaced by desolation and desperation as you watch your family being slowly ravaged by hunger and ill health. As a man, it's difficult to swagger around the house controlling your domain when it's not backed with money? Eventually, you lose respect (and probably control if your wife, who can be openly chanced in your presence) in your domain. In some cases, you watch your children, siblings, wife etc die of health problems.

Having being reduced to this low, how many people can resist the temptation of making money from crime?

Abagworo: MADRID (AFP) – Spanish police said Sunday they had broken up a ring that smuggled in women from Nigeria and forced them into street prostitution by burning them with irons and using voodoo rituals.

Police arrested six Nigerian nationals, including the suspected woman ringleader, as part of an investigation launched last year after one of the prostitutes filed a complaint with the authorities.

“The control exercised over women was total, involving verbal threats as well as physical violence and various voodoo ceremonies to terrorise them,” police said in a statement.

“The ring caused them serious injury through bites or by using an iron to cause second-degree burns.”

The ring recruited women in Benin City, a run-down Nigerian port, whose husbands and fathers had died and who were struggling to raise their children.

They transported the women overland to Morocco and then smuggled them on small wooden boats into Spain where they were forced to work as street prostitutes in Barcelona and Malaga.

Spanish police have swooped several times in past years on similar prostitution rings that used the threat of voodoo curses to frighten their victims into obedience.

Before leaving Nigeria, the rings often take their victims to shrines where they swear to pay their debts to the group and not to denounce them to the police.

The women leave fingernails, hair, underwear and other personal items at the shrines which they are told will give voodoo priests the power to harm them wherever they are in the world.

Why hide posts here when everyone knows that the bini people are proud of their prostitutiion business in Italy,Spain and other parts of Europe ?


Ask NAPTIP if you doubt me.
its true the Binis are frontline when it comes to this sort of international biz, but we're not proud of it. There's a saying in Benin that ''the thief is not half as ashamed as the brother is''

rodeo0070:
Voodoo is a religion that originates
in Africa. In the Americas and the
Caribbean, it is thought to be a
combination of various African,
Catholic and Native American
traditions. It is practiced around the
world but there is no accurate count
of how many people are Voodooists.
Voodoo has no scripture or world
authority. It is community-centered
and supports individual experience,
empowerment and responsibility.
Voodoo is different in different
parts of the world, and varies from
community to community. This is
mostly about Voodoo in New Orleans
and Haiti.
Voodoo embraces and encompasses
the entirety of human experience. It
is practiced by people who are
imperfect and may use religion for
their own purposes.
Racism clouds our view of Voodoo.
It is rooted in slavery and intricately
connected to this hemisphere's
political and social evolution. Voodoo
was first practiced in America and
the Caribbean by slaves of African
descent, whose culture was both
feared and ridiculed. Slaves were
not considered fully human. Their
religion was dismissed as
superstition, their priests were
denigrated as witchdoctors, their
Gods and Spirits were denounced as
evil.
One of the only successful slave
revolutions in modern history
occurred in Haiti in the late 1700s.
Slaves of African descent
overthrew European rulers and took
control of the country. Many slaves
were Voodooists, and some of their
military leaders were priests who
inspired and organized their
communities to fight for freedom.
The Haitian Revolution provoked
fear in other European and American
colonies that were reliant on vast
numbers of slaves as plantation
labor. The imagery and vocabulary
of Voodoo (and other Afro-
Caribbean religions) became
threatening and ingrained in those
cultures as something horrifying,
associated with bloodshed and
violence. It was brutally repressed
in most places. It became taboo.
Over time, American culture became
fascinated by this mysterious
tradition and began to depict it in
movies and books as sensationalized
horror. "Voodoo" practices were
dreamed up by Hollywood; most of
the disturbing images fixed in our
minds are something we saw in a
movie. Hollywood created a
mythology that we have taken as
truth. "Voodoo" has become part of
modern folklore as something evil
that can hurt us.
But Voodoo is widely practiced in
Haiti, and it is still relevant in
politics there. Politics and religion
make a controversial mix. In that
regard, Voodoo is the same as any
belief system. In the U.S., many
Voodooists are afraid of how they
will be treated so they hide their
religion. While this is
understandable, it also reinforces
suspicion that they practice in
secret to conceal something bad or
violent. Fear begets fear.
yeah, every evil practice originated in africa. U guys hav bin so brainwashed...smh

odiman: Thank God the Ibos are not into such abroad

If it enters Igboland, it'll be devastating. Kidnapping will be like child's play. I pray it does not. Igbos are quite extreme when introduced to negativity. Look at the way Igbos suffered during the era of slavery. Look at the way Igbos have accepted Christianity like its their real religion causing a cultural suicide.

@topic, we Nigerians need to stop believing in voodoo and face reality. Most of the girls are under a voodoo oath and do that against their wish while a few are doing it intentionally.
