A suspected human trafficker, Israel Lame was
arrested with two young women in Gboko,
Benue State by vigilantes while attempting to
flee with them at the motor park en-route
Lagos and then outside the country.
Spokesman of the the Benue State Police
Command, ASP Moses Yamu, who paraded
the suspect at the command’s headquarters in
Makurdi with 15 others said Lame was
arrested based on a tip off. The suspect who
is of dual citizenry - Nigeria/Cameroun and
claimed to be from Cross River State,
specialized in trafficking young women whom
he takes to Burkina Faso where he resides.

"He was arrested while trying to board a
vehicle to Lagos in company of two young
girls namely Timia Daasha, 20, from Plateau
State and Joy Gideon, 24, from Benue," the
PPRO said.



Speaking with Daily Trust in an interview, the
suspect denied the allegation and said he has
lived in Burkina Faso for one year and eight
months as a teacher after graduating from
Fidel Polytechnic in Gboko, Benue State.He
said he knew one Mr. Simon Averla, a petty
trader within the polytechnic.





"I was a student of Fidel Polytechnic, Gboko
in the Department of Legal Studies. It was
during my stay in the school that I met and
became friends with Simon. So we kept in
touch and I was communicating with him
while in Burkina Faso about job
opportunities in that country."

The suspect claims that Simon initially
accepted a sales representatives job for his
wife but later declined. Daasha, a tailor’s
apprentice denied Lame’s claim that she was
the one who pressured him for the journey to
Burkina Faso, adding that the suspect had
been did everything possible to convince her
to follow him.

"He kept persuading me to follow him that I
won’t regret my decision after I had warned
him that my aunty wouldn’t allow me to go
on such trip. We concluded arrangement
without any member of my family knowing
except my brother and was about to move to
Lagos from where we will go to Burkina Faso
when we were arrested by vigilantes at a
motor park in Gboko," Daasha said.



The second victim, Joy, a single mother of two
said Lame met her at a salon in Gboko and
told her about the job outside Nigeria where
she could earn a lot of money. The suspect
mounted so much pressure on her that she
later agreed to leave with him. Both women
said Lame had assured them of taking care of
all their travel bills and other expenses. lalasticlala mynd44
