He said the Federal Government and the political class had conspired to under-develop Nigeria by refusing to fund education.

ON POINT: Spiritual, Mental Slavery Still Exist In Nigeria —Soyinka





NOBEL Laureate, Professor Wole Soyinka, has observed that mental and spiritual slavery still exist in some parts of the world, including Nigeria, as some religious leaders are determined to enslave others rather than preach the gospel that appeal through the minds.
Soyinka made the observation in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, on Thursday, at the public presentation of a book ‘’He Dared: The story of Okuku Udo Akpabio, the Great Colonial African Ruler,” written by Offonmbuck Akpabio, held at the Le’Meridien Ibom Hotels and Golf Resort.

Man Uses Witchcraft To Terrify Girls Into Sex Slavery Across Europe




A Nigerian smuggler who terrified his victims into silence through “juju” witchcraft rituals and sexual violence was convicted today [Oct. 26] of trafficking girls to work in the sex trade across Europe.

Former security guard Osezua Osolase faces jail when he is sentenced on Monday [Oct. 29] for tricking impoverished young Nigerian girls into travelling to Britain before farming them out as sex workers for up (euros) 70,000 a time to continental gangs.

Police identified flight records and forged passport records to show that he recruited 28 girls and escorted many of them abroad over a 15-month period from 2010. But Osolase boasted to his victims that he had been running the scam for more than a decade.

Osolase deliberately targeted some of the most vulnerable girls in the world - orphaned, ill-educated and homeless - and brought them to Britain where he kept them captive.
