Some 30 Nigerian ladies trafficked to Lebanon are appealing to the Nigerian Government to rescue them as they are stranded in that country. Abayomi said that the message was being relayed based on an encounter with the victims, which necessitated the call for a speedy rescue action from government. The Nigerian embassy in Lebanon have tried but we want to go back home. Fawunmi who claimed she has been responsible for the upkeeps of the ladies stated that the victims are seriously suffering. “After rescuing the ladies, there must be thorough investigation and punishment for the agents and other human traffickers involved in this,” Henshaw pleaded.
