The Director General of National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP),Julie Okah - Donli, has raised over the new tricks used by traffickers.
During an interactive meeting with the Edo state task force against trafficking in Benin city , she said
" You must beam your searchlight on transporters. Go to the motor parks because this is where they take these girls from. Then you go to the waterside, they takes the boats too. By the time you seize one bus, prosecute the bus owner, bus driver trust me they will stop carrying people. The traffickers are not waiting for us, they are always on the move and they are very fast, so we must be ahead of them at all times. Then you also have to look at the orphanages.
There's a lot of orphanages trafficking going on but a lot of people don't know. Some of them actually kidnap children from the local communities on the streets and put them there. Human trafficking is not about underaged girls, you miss the point. I can be trafficked. Anybody can be trafficked so its not about underaged girls. Even boys can be trafficked as well...she added.
