đź’” Inside Nigeria’s Human Trafficking and Abuse Crisis: A Nation in Peril

-

Nigeria is currently battling a deeply rooted human trafficking and abuse crisis that threatens its social fabric and global reputation. With over 1.4 million citizens trapped in modern slavery, the country remains one of Africa’s most active trafficking hubs. From forced prostitution and child labor to baby factories and organ trade, traffickers exploit the nation’s most vulnerable—especially women and girls.

Recent reports have exposed horrifying baby factories operating under the disguise of orphanages or maternity homes. In these hidden facilities, girls as young as 13 are kidnapped or lured, raped repeatedly, and forced to deliver babies. These newborns are then sold—sometimes to desperate buyers abroad—for illegal adoption or even ritual purposes.

The National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP) has recorded thousands of rescue operations. From 2022 to 2024 alone, over 7,000 victims were saved and 205 traffickers were convicted. But the crisis persists. Criminals now use digital tools, fake job offers, and online scams to trap victims, with some victims trafficked as far as Europe and the Middle East.

In mid-July 2025, a major crackdown in Enugu, Anambra, and Ondo States led to the arrest of 11 suspects and the rescue of several pregnant victims. Authorities say corruption, poverty, and weak legal enforcement are driving factors behind the crisis.

NAPTIP, civil society groups, and international partners are working tirelessly to raise awareness, support survivors, and dismantle these criminal networks. But much more needs to be done. As World Day Against Human Trafficking (July 30) approaches, Nigerians are being urged to speak out, report suspicious activities, and support victims.

This is not just a human rights issue—it’s a national emergency.
