  • Externalisation of Borders
    EXTERNALISATION OF BORDERS February 25th and 26th, 2020 LAGOS (Nigeria) The phenomenon of re-trafficking of women repatriated in Nigeria by Kokunre A. Eghafona* Introduction Trafficking in Persons (TIP) or Human trafficking (HT) is regarded as a modern form of slavery (UN, 2001). Human trafficking is one of the most egregious human rights violations (Annan, 2001) and violations of human rights are seen to be the cause and consequence of trafficking in persons (UN, 2014). Since 2000, soon after a global treaty to combat HT was adopted, the term modern slavery is now the catch-all term to describe human trafficking, forced labour, debt bondage, sex trafficking, forced marriage and other slave-like exploitation. Human traffickers are said to be motivated by greed, driven by quota, devoid of respect for human rights, preying upon the vulnerable, and damaging the psychological and physical well-being of their victims (Toney-Butler & Mittel, 2019:1). Human Trafficking (HT), especially in women and girls, is the most visible of the categories of modern slavery in Nigeria because of its international dimension. Nigeria has remained a source, transit and destination country for women and children in human trafficking for forced labour and sex trafficking (Okojie et al, 2003; Maicibi 2008; US TIP Report 2019). Although women, men and children may all be trafficked for various purposes, trafficking is often a ‘gendered’ crime. Available evidence suggests that those who are trafficked into the sex industry and as domestic servants are more likely to be women and children (USDOS: 2011; WHO 2012). According to Annan (2001), HT thrives on discrimination against women, especially the increasing “feminization of poverty” and it is driven by organised gangs of traffickers, who ruthlessly exploit their victims for the easy profit they hope to gain.

  • Legacies of Colonialism and Islam for Hausa Women: an Historical Analysis, 1804-1960
    Legacies of Colonialism and Islam for Hausa Women: An Historical Analysis, 1804-1960 by Kari Bergstrom Michigan State University Winner of the Rita S. Gallin Award for the Best Graduate Student Paper in Women and International Development Working Paper #276 October 2002 Abstract This paper looks at the effects of Islamization and colonialism on women in Hausaland. Beginning with the jihad and subsequent Islamic government of ‘dan Fodio, I examine the changes impacting Hausa women in and outside of the Caliphate he established. Women inside of the Caliphate were increasingly pushed out of public life and relegated to the domestic space. Islamic law was widely established, and large-scale slave production became key to the economy of the Caliphate. In contrast, Hausa women outside of the Caliphate were better able to maintain historical positions of authority in political and religious realms. As the French and British colonized Hausaland, the partition they made corresponded roughly with those Hausas inside and outside of the Caliphate. The British colonized the Caliphate through a system of indirect rule, which reinforced many of the Caliphate’s ways of governance. The British did, however, abolish slavery and impose a new legal system, both of which had significant effects on Hausa women in Nigeria. The French colonized the northern Hausa kingdoms, which had resisted the Caliphate’s rule. Through patriarchal French colonial policies, Hausa women in Niger found they could no longer exercise the political and religious authority that they historically had held. The literature on Hausa women in Niger is considerably less well developed than it is for Hausa women in Nigeria.

  • Understanding Nigeria Within the Context of the Atlantic World
    Omer Cooper J (1971) September 2010 Newsletter Understanding Nigeria within the Context of the Atlantic World By Samuel Oluwole Ogundele* Abstract The legacies of the trans-Atlantic slave trade, and its enduring impacts in Nigeria starting in the mid-15th century, present a paradox. Those oppressive activities, orchestrated by European interests, comprise a subject that evokes intense emotional reactions to condemn such incidents of slavery, economic exploitation, and political subjugation. Continuing, damaging effects of the trans-Atlantic slave trade can be seen in the cultural landscape of Nigeria today. In turn, enduring lessons of human character, aspiration, and resilience can also be learned from these histories. In this regard, a paradigm shift presented by trans-disciplinary approaches involving such subjects as archaeology and anthropology presents a promising development. For too long, attention has been almost totally focused on the debilitating effects of the trans-Atlantic slave trade on facets of Nigerian cultures. Such an approach was derived from a discourse of condemnation that tended to inhibit the full potentials of modern education and appreciation of cultural accomplishments in Nigeria’s history. The lacunae of silences created as a result of this condemnatory focus and related parameters of authenticity or truth can be filled in through the lenses of archaeological and anthropological sciences among other disciplines. Such trans-disciplinary research efforts provide new insights into the resilience and achievements of Nigerian cultures. For example, agricultural, culinary, and architectural knowledge and heritage were greatly modified over time in Nigeria as a result of the historical processes and entanglements generated during the period of the trans-Atlantic slave trade.

  • Human Trafficking: a Modern Day Slavery in Nigeria
    American International Journal of Contemporary Research Vol. 8, No. 2, June 2018 doi:10.30845/aijcr.v8n2p5 Human Trafficking: A Modern Day Slavery in Nigeria Folashade B. Okeshola Deparment of Sociology Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria Nigeria Adebimpe A. Adenugba Department of Sociology University of Ibadan Nigeria Abstract Human trafficking in Nigeria has assumed unimaginable dimension in the last two decades due to several factors which include globalization, economic recession, poverty, conflicts, weak legal system, and lack of adequate legislation and of political will. Human trafficking is an organised crime. It is a modern form of slavery. The two weapons used by traffickers to get their victims are deception and through force. Human trafficking has continued to strive in Nigeria because of collusion among security, immigration, embassy, airline officials and traffickers. Human trafficking had become a major source of concern to all societies in recent time. Human trafficking has put Nigeria on the map of the notorious. In view of the above, we recommend that the Nigerian government should address the issue of massive unemployment and poverty in Nigeria as well as create enabling environments for entrepreneurship for the citizens. Keywords: Deception, forced labour, exploitation, trafficking, slavery 1.0 Introduction Human trafficking is a crime. This crime has been on for some time, without much government notice or attention being drawn to the issue. The first worthwhile attention was drawn to the idea of human trafficking by Mrs.TitiAtiku, the wife of the then vice president of Nigeria. This subsequently led to the establishment of her pet project WOTCLEF. In furtherance of her dream and to redeem the image of Nigeria in general and dignity of women in particular, a bill was proposed to set up an agency to be given specific mandate to tackle the problem of human trafficking in Nigeria.

    INSURGENCY, TERRORISM AND INSECURITY IN NIGERIA BY NGWU LEONARD UGWU (PH.D) DEPARTMENT OF SOCIOLOGY/PSYCHOLOGY Godfrey Okoye University, Enugu Email: [email protected] Phone No: 08039632720 And Aniche Alex N. (Ph.D) DEPARTMENT OF SOCIOLOGY/PSYCHOLOGY Godfrey Okoye University Enugu [email protected] Phone No: 08038355967 Email: Abstract The insurgents who use terrorist tactics such as bombings, shootings, ambush, suicide-bombings, grenades, rockets and poisonous weapons against the civilian population as well as the security agents is undoubtedly one of the greatest security challenges currently bedeviling Nigeria. This unimaginable war crimes against humanity perpetrated by the insurgents vis-à-vis terrorist group include: murder, torture, rape, assassination, forced-marriage abduction, hostage-taking, displacement, arson, poisoning and many more. The focus of this paper is to critically appraise the origin, activities and implications of the prevailing insurgency/terrorism and insecurity in Nigeria. The paper utilized primary and secondary sources of data from the existing literature, including books and journal articles as well as Focus Group Discussion (FGD) for the qualitative analysis of these warrisome situation in Nigeria. The findings revealed that inspite of the efforts of various governments and security agents in Nigeria, more than 25,000 people (men, women and children inclusive) have been killed while over 2.8 million displaced from their home after the escalation of this hineous groups known as insurgents/terrorists since 2009. The paper strongly recommends for multi-dimentional and comprehensive approach for a sustainable peace and socio-political stability, economic reform, good-governance void of corruption.

  • Nigeria: Trafficking of Women
    Country Policy and Information Note Nigeria: Trafficking of women Version 5.0 July 2019 Preface Purpose This note provides country of origin information (COI) and analysis of COI for use by Home Office decision makers handling particular types of protection and human rights claims (as set out in the basis of claim section). It is not intended to be an exhaustive survey of a particular subject or theme. It is split into two main sections: (1) analysis and assessment of COI and other evidence; and (2) COI. These are explained in more detail below. Assessment This section analyses the evidence relevant to this note – i.e. the COI section; refugee/human rights laws and policies; and applicable caselaw – by describing this and its inter-relationships, and provides an assessment on whether, in general: • A person is reasonably likely to face a real risk of persecution or serious harm • A person is able to obtain protection from the state (or quasi state bodies) • A person is reasonably able to relocate within a country or territory • Claims are likely to justify granting asylum, humanitarian protection or other form of leave, and • If a claim is refused, it is likely or unlikely to be certifiable as ‘clearly unfounded’ under section 94 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002. Decision makers must, however, still consider all claims on an individual basis, taking into account each case’s specific facts. Country of origin information The country information in this note has been carefully selected in accordance with the general principles of COI research as set out in the Common EU [European Union] Guidelines for Processing Country of Origin Information (COI), dated April 2008, and the Austrian Centre for Country of Origin and Asylum Research and Documentation’s (ACCORD), Researching Country Origin Information – Training Manual, 2013.

  • INDENTURED SEX WORK MIGRATION from EDO STATE to EUROPE NAVIGATION in VIOLENT CONTEXTS Wetenschappelijke Verhandeling Aantal Woorden: 24.416
    INDENTURED SEX WORK MIGRATION FROM EDO STATE TO EUROPE NAVIGATION IN VIOLENT CONTEXTS Wetenschappelijke verhandeling Aantal woorden: 24.416 Sophie Lindiwe Samyn Stamnummer: 20055788 Promotor: dr. Jeroen Cuvelier Commissaris: dr. Marlene Schäfers Masterproef voorgelegd voor het behalen van de graad Master in de richting Conflict en Development Academiejaar: 2017-2018 Abstract (NL) Sinds de jaren negentig migreren Edo meisjes in groten getale vanuit Nigeria naar Europa. Ze sluiten een overeenkomst met een sponsor, die hun migratieproject financiert. Nadat ze Europa illegaal binnenkomen worden ze tewerkgesteld in de prostitutie, zodat ze hun schuld kunnen terugbetalen. Deze studie onderzoekt wat deze Indentured Sex Work (ISW)-migratie motiveert. Hierbij wordt afgeweken van algemene theorievorming en berichtgeving die de vrouwen bestempelt als slachtoffers in de handen van mensenhandelaars. In de plaats daarvan wordt gekozen voor een open mobiliteitskader waarin de ervaringen en verbeelding van de vrouwen centraal komen te staan. Agency en geweld werden gebruikt als analytische tools doorheen het migratietraject. Een multi-sited onderzoeksdesign, uitgevoerd in Nigeria en Belgieë, verbindt de recente literatuur en expertise over ISW-migratie met een diepgaande analyse van de levensverhalen van tien Edo vrouwen. De studie concludeert dat (1) de ernstige vormen van structureel geweld waaraan Edo vrouwen worden onderworpen, (2) de kracht van de verbeelding, (3) de medeplichtigheid van de gemeenschap en spirituele wereld en (4) de mogelijkheid
