"You created all these troubles in the Southwest and also for your information, I did not come here as a member of your party, I am no longer a PDP member," Fayose shouted.
Speaking further and inching towards Obasanjo, Fayose told him that he didn't deserve his greeting and warned Obasanjo never to talk to him again.

Obasanjo flew in rage and called Fayose a "naughty person", this further infuriated Fayose, who moved menacingly towards Obasanjo, waved his finger in his face and called him the "father of bastards".

Slavery in the US a history? Not quite.
Scott Bronstein, Amber Lyon and Alexandra Poolos
03 December 2010

Young teenage girls from poor families of West Africa are lured into USA on the pretext of providing them with education and are then, forced into slavery. Human trafficking exists everywhere in the US, the authors claim, and as a trade has become even more profitable than drug-trafficking.



'Nicole,' left, and Zena, right, thought they were coming to the US for an education/ Photo credit: CNN They arrived in the United States from West Africa, young girls held against their will and forced to work for hours on end. But this time, it didn't happen hundreds of years ago.

Nicole's journey started in 2002, when she was barely 12, in her small village in western Ghana. She and about 20 other girls were held in plain sight, but always under the watchful eyes of their captors.

"It was like being trapped, like being in a cage," said "Nicole," now 19. CNN agreed not to use her real name.

"I always have to behave, behave, behave, behave. No freedom at all."

The girls' families sent them to the United States after being assured they would receive a better education. But once they arrived, they were forced to work in hair braiding shops across the Newark area - just a short drive from New York City, right in the shadow of the Statue of Liberty.

The girls, who are now young women, have never spoken publicly before, until now.

"It was horrible," said Zena Amevor, who was 15 when she was brought over from Togo. "Sometimes there was not enough food for us to eat. , It was like a prison. I was just stuck there. , It was horrible."

For the first time, the former slaves provided details about their horrifying odyssey and an intimate view into the world of human trafficking and contemporary slavery.

"Jacqueline" was 13 when her family sent her to the United States, not knowing that a woman she called "auntie" was a human trafficker. It was unclear if the woman was a blood relative.

"My dad , worked hard so I could go to school, so when my auntie came and told my family that I could go to a school in the U.S. , they trusted her," she said. "Everyone was happy about it."

The girls worked in the salons right out in the open, in front of customers. They were on their feet all day, sometimes for more than 12 hours, weaving intricate and elaborate hair braids, seven days a week.

This went on for more than five years.

"We stood there all day, just braiding," Jacqueline said. "If they want really small braids, you stay there sometimes until 2 a.m. , That's every day."

"When I saw teenagers going around, going to the movies and just being a teen , I just couldn't understand why my life has to be this way , "Nicole, human trafficking victimAt times, they were forced to braid the hair of American teenagers no older than they were -- girls who were free and had no idea the people braiding their hair were slaves.

"I wished I could go with them," Nicole said. "Most of the time, I'd end up just breaking down later crying , because when I see teenagers going around, going to the movies and just being a teen , I just couldn't understand why my life has to be this way , "

In one of the many ironies in the case, the customers whose hair was braided by the slave girls were mostly African-American women, many of whom could have been descendants of slaves brought to America generations ago.

Slavery through trafficking continues widely today in the United States, though often undetected, according to law enforcement officials.

Nicole, Zena, Jacqueline and the other girls were held in groups in several houses around Newark and East Orange, New Jersey. The girls were brought to the United States at different times between 2002 and 2007, according to court documents. As the group grew, the traffickers ran out of places to put them and had to rent more living quarters.

The homes were always in the middle of residential areas with manicured lawns and nice houses, often near churches, schools and community buildings.

"I think it's hard for people to believe that in 2010, we have people who actually put people in slavery," said Paul Fishman, the U.S. attorney for New Jersey, whose office successfully prosecuted the case. "It's the most fundamental and intolerable violation of human rights."

The traffickers convicted in this case were a mother, father and son who also came from West Africa, according to court documents and law enforcement officials.

Nicole, Zena and Jacqueline described living in fear shortly after they arrived in the United States, forced to work by day at the hair salons and sleeping in groups on the floor at night.

"When I got here , I asked her if I was going to school, and she said there was no school," Jacqueline said, referring to her auntie, the trafficking ringleader.

"I said, 'I'm not going to school?' [and] she said, 'no' , and that was her decision and she wasn't going to change it."

The captors controlled the girls by beating them, withholding food, keeping them separated from anyone else and, at times, through sexual abuse, according to court documents.

The young women who spoke to CNN described years of cruelty, physical abuse, beatings with wood or metal objects, extreme isolation and sleeping on mattresses on floors in filthy conditions. Even their phone calls back to their families were monitored by their captors.

"I always thought of running [away], but I know nobody," Zena said. "I don't know where to go, didn't have [any] friends, nobody to talk to, so it was kind of hard. , I had nowhere to go to."

Five years after the girls began arriving, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents received a tip and began extensive surveillance on the houses where the girls were kept.

After months of surveillance, the ICE agents raided the houses in 2007. Inside, they found the girls and mattresses on the floor. The traffickers had hidden bags of cash and the girls' passports.

Peter Edge, who led the team of agents, said none of the girls' customers ever called officials to help.

"Hundreds of people came into these salons, they probably witnessed things out of the ordinary," said Edge, special agent in charge of ICE's Homeland Security Investigations in Newark.

"These girls were shielded from the outside world, virtually hidden in plain sight , from everything else that was around them."

Edge and the girls said several customers asked about the girls' ages, and the girls -- following the orders of their captors -- lied and said they were 18.

"I wish one of my customers , would have gone to police," Nicole said. "I wish they would have helped me."

In the 2007 raid, the ICE agents found a notebook the girls used to track the tips they received, but couldn't keep, at the hair salon. Ironically, on the cover of the notebook was a picture of the Statue of Liberty.

More than two years later, Akouavi Afolabi; her husband, Lassissi Afolabi; and their son, Dereck Hounakey, were convicted of running the trafficking ring. Akouavi Afolabi was the ringleader, while her husband and son were accomplices, according to court documents.

In September of this year, a Newark court sentenced Akouavi Afolabi to 27 years in prison, while her husband received 24 years and their son received 4½ years.

The girls had to testify against the Afolabis in court.

"I remember crying. All I did was cry. It was overwhelming," Nicole said. "I told myself, 'She finally got what she deserved' , she did really, really wrong. She treated us bad. And she was heartless , and I'm happy she was caught."

Court records show the Afolabis knew many of the families whose girls they lured away to become their slaves. They had an elaborate scheme to lure the girls: Mrs. Afolabi would approach families of young girls in Ghana and Togo, where she had connections, and tell the families she would give the girls an education in the United States. They then used fraudulent visa papers to sneak the girls into the country.

Experts say the main reason for most modern-day human trafficking is money.

"Human trafficking is extremely profitable," said Bridgette Carr, a law professor and a national expert on human trafficking.

The customers at the hair braiding salon where Zena and Nicole were forced to work would sometimes pay as much as $200 to $400 for elaborate braiding that would take many hours to complete.

"It's so profitable that we are seeing some drug traffickers get out of drug trafficking and into human trafficking,"Bridgette Carr, law professor and trafficking expertThe traffickers took every penny made by the girls, both in tips and payments for their hair braiding. They made about $4 million, according to court documents.

"It's so profitable that we are seeing some drug traffickers get out of drug trafficking and into human trafficking," said Carr, who teaches law at the University of Michigan Law School in Ann Arbor.

Carr heads a clinic that is helping Nicole and many of the other girls move ahead with their lives.

"Sadly, the work of our clinic is necessary in every community in America," she said. "Human trafficking, also known as modern-day slavery, exists in big cities, in small towns, in rural areas with no towns, exists in restaurants, in hair salons, in hotels and in farmwork.

"Almost every industry you can think of, there is an opportunity there for someone to be exploited. This is everywhere in the U.S."

Today, Nicole, Zena, Jacqueline and the other girls are trying to move on with their lives. Several are in high school, and one has recently been accepted into college.

Most of the girls have not been able to return home to see their families in West Africa. When asked why she agreed to finally talk out about such a painful chapter of her life, Nicole said she wanted to raise awareness about what other young girls may be going through.

"I want to tell people that slavery exists," she said. "It's huge, and it's really happening here."

And does two wrongs make a right? Your reasoning smacks of nepotism and perhaps religious bigotry. GEJ is not the person we need to move 9ja forward. I care less about the tribe/ethnic and/or religion of the next guy who'll occupy that sit. All we are asking for is someone with the heart to fight corruption to a standstill, instill high level of discipline into 9jans and take us back on track towards meaningful development. GEJ has consistently shown us he's not the man for the job. The north/south and xtian/muslim divide only allows the despotic leaders we have in government to continue to perpetuate their nefarious acts while ensuring that our sufferings have no ending.

Lagos — At least 40 prominent politicians are on the advisory list containing over 100 persons with high profile cases whom the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has said should be barred from contesting for elective offices in 2011.

The list, which contains names of former governors, former and serving ministers, ex-bank chiefs, top government officials and some foreign and Nigerian businessmen, was gleaned from EFCC website last night.

Prominent among those on the list are former Jigawa State Governor, Senator Saminu Turaki; former Abia State Governor Orji Kalu who is contesting for president in 2011; ex-Ekiti State Governor Ayo Fayose, and daughter of ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo, Senator Iyabo Obasanjo-Bello.

Others are former Oyo State Governor Rashidi Ladoja, who is toying with contesting for the same office next year, and former Aviation Minister Femi Fani-Kayode, who is running for governorship in Osun State.

THISDAY learnt the EFCC has already forwarded the list to the various political parties particularly the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), which parades most of the politicians, with an appeal to the parties not to give them their platforms for the 2011 polls.



THISDAY gathered the list comprises mostly those facing charges of corruption in various courts, particularly those in the 55 cases called politically exposed person cases the commission is prosecuting.

Also on the list are ex-Delta State Governor James Ibori; jailed PDP chieftain Bode George; former Plateau State Governor Joshua Dariye; former Edo State Governor Lucky Igbinedion; his former Adamawa State counterpart Boni Haruna; Senator Chimaroke Nnamani; former Plateau State Governor Michael Botmang; former Aviation Minister Babalola Borisade; and Nyeson Wike, serving Chief of Staff to Rivers State Governor Rotimi Amaechi.

There are also former Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister Nazir el-Rufai; former Health Minister Adenike Grange; former Nasarawa State Governor Abdullahi Adamu who wants to contest for the Senate; former Taraba State Governor Jolly Nyame; former Chairman of the Police Equipment Fund Chief Kenny Martins; and Democratic Peoples Party (DPP) leader and ex-Governor of Sokoto, Alhaji Attahiru Bafarawa.

The newspaper learnt that the EFCC, which tabulated the cases, the offences against the persons, how much they were alleged to have stolen and the status of the cases, said in its letters to the parties that the ball was in their court.

EFCC alleged that some of the politicians were deliberately stalling their cases in court so that the cases would still be running during the 2011 polls.

Also on the list are Senator Nicholas Ugbane and Hon. Ndudi Elemelu, Mohammed Jibo and Paulinus Igwe being prosecuted over the N5.2 billion Rural Electrification Agency scam.

EFCC Chair Farida Waziri had forwarded the names of the affected politicians to the PDP Chairman, Dr. Okwesilieze Nwodo, last week.

The submission of the names is sequel to the meeting Waziri had with the PDP chairman and members of the party's National Working Committee (NWC) at the Legacy House, the PDP Campaign Office in Maitama, Abuja last month.

At the meeting, THISDAY gathered that the EFCC boss complained about the overbearing influence of PDP members who were facing corruption charges and who were allegedly using the judiciary to stall their prosecution.

Sources said the EFCC chair had complained that there were many politicians who are members of the PDP standing corruption charges, but were hiding under the influence of the ruling party to stall diligent prosecution of their cases.

"They are so influential that they hire big time lawyers who are Senior Advocates of Nigeria (SAN), using them to intimidate the courts and prosecutors of the EFCC," the source quoted Waziri as telling the PDP officials at the meeting.

The EFCC chair, at the meeting with Nwodo and NWC members, asked for the intervention of the executive committee of the PDP to ensure that they use the party's internal machinery to stop the alleged corrupt politicians from contesting elections.


A source at the EFCC said the commission was confident that the parties would not give the listed politicians their platforms for the 2011 poll.

The source said EFCC's consultations with relevant stakeholders on how to ensure that only credible persons contest in 2011 was ongoing.

Some ex-bank chiefs namely former CEO of Oceanic International Bank, Mrs. Cecilia Ibru, who was recently jailed for 18 months; former Executive Vice-Chairman of Intercontinental Bank Plc, Chief Erastus Akingbola; former Managing Director of Union Bank, Bartholomew Ebong; ex-MD of FinBank Okey Nwosu; and Afribank ex-MD Sebastine Adigwe are also on the list.

EFCC sources said their inclusion was to move against any of them with political ambition.Also on the list are some foreigners being prosecuted over alleged illegal oil bunkering like the 13 Phillipinos and six Ghanaians.
