While giving testimony Faith Ekepemephia said: “A girl from my village in Akwa Ibom, who resides in Akure, Ondo State, told me that one madam she currently works with needed the service of a house help. The girl said I would be helping the madam do house chores and will be paid monthly.

I arrived Akure last Tuesday for the house help job only to be lodged in a hotel. It was later that I discovered that I have been lured into prostitution. I cried and told them that I want to go back to my village as this was not the type of work she told me about, but she threatened me.
