Fourteen young girls between the ages of 13 and 20 are right now eating beans and Ijebu garri in police custody in the Akute area of Ogun State, after they were arrested during a raid on a brothel that also serves as hideout for criminal elements.
But it was later discovered that the teenagers were forced into the dirty business by a cartel. As a result, the police is now making arrangements to hand them over to the agency in-charge of human trafficking in Nigeria.
While addressing newsmen the spokesman for the State Police Command, Mr. Muyiwa Adejobi, said: “The policemen attached to Ajuwon Division, led by the Divisional Police Officer, carried out a raid on the brothel... Upon enquiries, this brothel has been harbouring hoodlums, who terrorise the area.”
I also gathered that the owners of the brothel are currently undergoing interrogation at the police station.
