 How we were sexually abused in CAR - Rescued Nigerian miners


Rescued Nigerian miners who were stranded in Central African Republic, (CAR), have relayed their ordeal in the hands of their Chinese employers l, saying they were sexually abused and subsequently maltreated.

It would be recalled that the chairperson of the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission, NiDCOM, Abike Dabiri-Erewa, received 12 miners on Friday in Abuja.

This was contained in a statement by the Director of Media, Public Relations and Protocols at the commission, Abdurrahman Balogun.

Narrating their ordeal at the NiDCOM office, the leader of the rescued workers, Igorigo Freeborn, recounted  how they lived in harsh, unsafe homes in the forest in CAR  after their Chinese  recruiters abandoned them without pay for months.

He said , in spite of the  11 months’ unpaid salaries, they were homosexually abused by their Chinese employers in the war torn country.

“I am not ashamed to say it. I want other people to learn from it. We were treated badly there, but thank God for sparing our lives to tell the stories today,” he added.

Continuing, Feeborn appealed to the federal government to help redress the maltreatment they were put through at the hands of their employers.

He added that he was an unpatriotic and greedy  citizen who did not think anything good can come out of the country.

He however, noted that they all appreciate FG’s helping hand to rescue them from the hardship in CAR.

In her address, Dabiri-Erewa described their ordeal as inhumane and assured that justice will be served, noting that the commission in conjunction with relevant government agencies would revisit the matter.

She enjoined  the rescued men to be of good behaviour and try to partner with the commission in its advocacy on irregular migration and its consequences.
