 Malian army withdraws from key Tessalit military camp: sources Mali’s army and its Russian mercenary allies have surrendered Camp Tessalit, a strategic military post in the north, multiple sources told the AFP news agency on Friday. An official from the Tuareg-led separatist group claimed soldiers and mercenaries at the camp had "surrendered", following a fierce fight over the weekend. Simultaneous attacks in Mali by militants linked to Al Qaeda and separatist Tuareg rebels on April 25 showed how fighters ​from different groups with different goals were able to strike at the heart of the West African country's military government. Gunfire and explosions were reported in the capital Bamako and around a large military base outside the capital, as well as Gao and central areas, as gunfire continuing in the northern city of Kidal.

OGUN: I SLEPT WITH 12 MEN DAILY- RESCUED 14-YEAR-OLD SEX WORKER. (PHOTO).


 

A recent raid by the Ogun State Amotekun Corps has rescued 14 teenage girls from a sex trafficking camp in Ifo Local Government Area. The survivors, aged between 12 and 39, were forced into prostitution at a hotel along the old bank road in Ifo.


The girls, mostly from Akwa Ibom, Cross River, and Delta states, were coerced into taking an oath, which involved being stripped naked and having parts of their hair cut off for alleged ritual purposes. This traumatic experience was meant to scare them from running away or confessing.


A 14-year-old survivor, who was trafficked into Ogun State on January 29, 2024, revealed that she was forced to sleep with 10 to 12 men daily. She was told she would work as a salesgirl but was instead forced into prostitution. The survivor, a JSS3 dropout, was given drugs to take before starting work and was paid between N1,000 to N2,000 per customer.


Another survivor, a 17-year-old girl, was brought to Ogun State on November 7, 2024. She was forced to swear an oath while standing naked on a Bible and was told she would have to work for one year before regaining her freedom. She was paid N5,000, N2,000, or N1,000 per customer and was forced to hand over all her earnings to her trafficker.


The Ogun State Amotekun Corps arrested 15 suspects, including the ring leader, Idem Joy, and recovered various items, including a sum of N819,600, drugs, cartons of condoms, energy enhancers, and lubricants.


The Corps Commandant, Brigadier General Alade Adedigba (retd.), condemned the sex trafficking ring and assured that the suspects would face justice. The rescued survivors are receiving medical attention and counseling.
