Six Nigerian women have been sent back
to the country from the Burkina Faso where they were allegedly taken to
for prostitution by a woman, named Balikis.
While re-uniting the girls with their
parents in Ibadan, Oyo State, on Wednesday, the Comptroller of the
Nigeria Immigration Service, Oyo State Command, Innocent Akatu, said the
girls were tricked to leave Nigeria, adding that the victims did not
tell their parents about the journey.
Akatu said the girls refused to engage
in prostitution in Ouagadougu, Burkina Fasso, and were locked in a room
by the trafficker.
He added that their journey back home after three weeks began when one of them escaped and alerted the Burkinabe police.
