Rivers woman for forcing 16-year-old pupil on holiday into prostitution
The National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons, Rivers State, said it arrested a woman, Blessing Iniedem, for allegedly forcing a 16-year-old girl into prostitution at a brothel in the Mile Three axis of Port Harcourt, the state capital.
The state NAPTIP Commander, Amaka Ikediashi, said Iniedem, who reportedly owned the brothel, brought the teenager from Akwa Ibom State under the guise of taking her on holiday.
She said, “The victim in question is 16-year-old. She was brought from Oron, Akwa Ibom State, to Rivers State, for forced prostitution by a certain Miss Blessing Iniedem, aka Patience, at a brothel.
“The suspect, Blessing Iniedem, told her that she was taking her on holiday and on getting to Rivers State, she was forced into prostitution.
“When we were notified, alongside our major stakeholders, we arrested the suspect, and rescued the victim.”
Asked what the agency would do with the suspect, Ikediashi said, “Definitely, NAPTIP is going to prosecute her because it is a case of forced sexual exploitation.”
The Chairperson, International Federation of Women Lawyers, Rivers State, Adata Bio-Briggs, said the teenager was first taken to a brothel in Gbundu, a popular waterfront in Port Harcourt, but was rejected because she was “too small.”
“They now took her to a brothel in Mile Three and they accepted her there. The victim told me that they put her in a house and gave her a lady as her madam. This lady collected N500 from the men that slept with her and it’s been going on for a while,” she added. (The PUNCH)

Today, I went to the beach front with my children.
I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the shell to her ear
and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is totally
off topic but I had to tell someone!
