A 14 years old teenage girl, rescued by Amotekun, from a sex trafficking camp in Ifo Local Government Area (LGA), Ogun State has narrated her ordeal of sleeping with a minimum of 12 Men daily. Other survivors; aged between 12 and 39, were forced into prostitution at a hotel along the old bank road in Ifo.
The girls, which were mainly from Akwa Ibom, Cross River, and Delta states, were coerced into taking an oath, which involved being stripped naked and having parts of their hair cut off for alleged ritual purposes. This traumatic experience was meant to scare them from running away or confessing.
A 14-year-old survivor, who was trafficked into Ogun State on January 29, 2024, revealed that she was forced to sleep with 10 to 12 men daily. She was told she would work as a salesgirl but was instead forced into prostitution. The survivor, a JSS3 dropout, was given drugs to take before starting work and was paid between N1,000 to N2,000 per customer.
Another survivor, a 17-year-old girl, was brought to Ogun State on November 7, 2024. She was forced to swear an oath while standing naked on a Bible and was told she would have to work for one year before regaining her freedom. She was paid N5,000, N2,000, or N1,000 per customer and was forced to hand over all her earnings to her trafficker.
The Ogun State Amotekun Corps arrested 15 suspects, including the ring leader, Idem Joy, and recovered various items, including a sum of N819,600, drugs, cartons of condoms, energy enhancers, and lubricants.
The Corps Commandant, Brigadier General Alade Adedigba (retd.), condemned the sex trafficking ring and assured that the suspects would face justice. The rescued survivors are receiving medical attention and counseling.
