Lebanon

Omolola Ajayi, a 23-year old woman rescued from Lebanon by the National Agency for Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons, NAPTIP, has said that she wants to go into acting.

Speaking in her indigenous Yoruba language, Omolola’s video pleading to be rescued in Lebanon, went viral.

Now she is back home for about a week and is in the care of NAPTIP at an undisclosed shelter.

AIT got an exclusive access to her, but on the condition that her now viral face is not shown. She said that life in Lebanon was hell.

For now, the 23-year old mother is undergoing what NAPTIP’s Director of Public Enlightenment, Arinze Ozakwe, said is an intensive rehabilitation programme.

The Lebanon returnee hopes for a fresh start after the rehabilitation.

Her case represents what not a few Nigerians seeking greener pastures go through, they fall into the hands of human traffickers and people smugglers. Many never live to tell their stories.
