Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons, NAPTIP, Edo Zone, rescued more than 100 victims of Edo and Delta extraction in 2023.<\/p>\n

NAPTIP\u2019s Zonal Commander, Mr Nduka Nwanwenne, made this known in Benin on Friday while presenting business starter packs to three survivors of human trafficking.<\/p>\n

He said the agency is currently prosecuting more than 64 traffickers in various courts in the two states.<\/p>\n

According to him, empowerment was part of the agency\u2019s strategy for survivors to be reintegrated into the society and earn a living.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have many survivors to be empowered, but we have to empower these three first.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe gave them sewing machines so that they could be engaged and would be able to give evidence in court against their traffickers,\u2019\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n

He explained that the empowerment of the three survivors was critical because two of them had babies while the third was pregnant.<\/p>\n

Nwanwenne further stated that the survivors were trafficked to Germany, Russia and Mali respectively, where they were exploited by their traffickers for years.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe believe that when they have a means of livelihood, they will not be vulnerable to trafficking,\u2019\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n
