It pains us to report that not to many decades ago
During which time many evils have been able to reassert
themselves within
We are speaking of a very ugly form of slavery that begins
with kidnapping of young and teenage girls who are repeatedly raped to create baby
and child slaves, child work slaves, child house slaves, baby and child sex
slaves, and baby and child slaves to be tortured and offered in satanic sacrifices
and rituals by resurging local witch doctors. Apparently this is becoming big business in
the region as these baby factories and baby farms are turning up all over the
place.
As we have reported in previous articles slavery is
practiced in a number of northern African nations as well as in almost every Middle
Eastern, Asian, and African Muslim nation despite their claims to the opposite.

"We stormed the premises of The Cross Foundation in Aba
three days ago following a report that pregnant girls aged between 15 and 17

state in the country's southeast.
"We rescued 32 pregnant girls and arrested the proprietor who is
undergoing interrogation over allegations that he normally sells the babies to
people who may use them for rituals or other purposes."

had been offered to sell their babies for between 25,000 and 30,000 naira (192
dollars) depending on the sex of the baby.
The babies would then be sold to
buyers for anything from 300,000 naira to one million naira (1,920 and 6,400
dollars) each, according to a state agency fighting human trafficking in
Nigeria, the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons
(NAPTIP).
The girls were expected to be transferred to the regional NAPTIP offices in

"We have so many cases going on in court right now," said Okoronkwo.
In 2008, police
raids revealed an alleged network of such clinics, dubbed baby
"farms" or "factories" in the local press.

Others are
sold into prostitution while a few are either killed or tortured in black magic
rituals. NAPTIP says it has also seen a trend of illegal adoption.
"There is a problem of illict adoption and
people not knowing the right way to adopt children," said Okoronkwo.
Human trafficking is ranked the third most common crime after economic fraud
and drug trafficking in the country, according to UNESCO.
