“I met the lady three months ago, when I travelled to Calabar for a friend’s burial, through a friend who told me she had problem taking care of her two children. She begged me to bring her to Lagos, so that she could work and take care of them. But before bringing her, I went to see her father who also consented to her coming with me.”
“Before we left Calabar for Lagos, I had told her what she would be doing when we get to Lagos and she agreed. The first money she made, she sent it back home for the upkeep of her children, but suddenly she was not concentrating on the hustling anymore, she started going out with some boys in my area which annoyed me and I seized her phone.”He added:
“I was in my hotel on Wednesday when policemen came and arrested me for trafficking girls and also forcing them into prostitution. Some of the ladies in my hotel came through their friends to work; nobody is forcing them into what they are doing.”
“They pay N2, 500 for each room they used, what I am after is my money. Whenever the girls come, I always provide them accommodation, I don’t chase them away.” One of the harlots, one Grace who was arrested by the police alongside Obano noted that she knew nothing about the case.The victim said:
“ I only came outside to urinate when policemen who came to raid the hotel arrested me. What I was able to gather was that, when the victim was brought into the hotel, we never knew she had a sister in the neighborhood. It was when the owner of the hotel seized her phone and prevented her from going out with some boys in the area that her sister brought police to arrest our chairman.”
“Since my children and I were abandoned by my husband, it was my mother who is taking care of us, that was what prompted me into prostitution. I thank God I have been able to make a living from the work I do.”
