Chairman of Air Peace Group, Dr. Allen Onyema, has condemned the recent discovery of underaged Nigerian girls trafficked to Ivory Coast, describing the act as deeply troubling and inhumane.
In a personally signed statement, Onyema urged collective action to combat human trafficking, stressing that the practice is not only ungodly but a grave violation of human dignity.
He called on all Nigerians to speak out and discourage anyone involved in trafficking, labeling it a clear example of man’s inhumanity to man.
He said: “We should discourage trafficking of any kind. It is inhumane and callous. It is absolutely ungodly and a good example of man’s inhumanity to man. We, in Air Peace, are ready to bring our fellow citizens back home free off charge.
“Besides that, we are going to send all of them to Duchess International Hospital in Ikeja for free medical examination and treatment.
“While we implore the Nigerian Embassy in Cote D’Ivoire to assemble them and reach out to us, we equally call on the Federal Government to take charge of their education while reuniting them with their families.”
