Nigerian 'baby factory' raided, 32 teenage girls freed - Yahoo! News
LAGOS (AFP) – Nigerian police have raided a home allegedly being used to force teenage girls to have babies that were then offered for sale for trafficking or other purposes, authorities said on Wednesday.
"We stormed the premises of the Cross Foundation in Aba three days ago following a report that pregnant girls aged between 15 and 17 are being made to make babies for the proprietor," said Bala Hassan, police commissioner for Abia state in the country's southeast.
"We rescued 32 pregnant girls and arrested the proprietor who is undergoing interrogation over allegations that he normally sells the babies to people who may use them for rituals or other purposes."
Some of the girls told police they had been offered to sell their babies for between 25,000 and 30,000 naira (192 dollars) depending on the sex of the baby.
The babies would then be sold to buyers for anything from 300,000 naira to one million naira (1,920 and 6,400 dollars) each, according to a state agency fighting human trafficking in Nigeria, the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP).
The girls were expected to be transferred to the regional NAPTIP offices in Enugu on Wednesday, the regional head Ijeoma Okoronkwo told AFP.
Hassan said the owner of the "illegal baby factory" is likely to face child abuse and human trafficking charges. Buying or selling of babies is illegal in Nigeria and can carry a 14-year jail term.
"We have so many cases going on in court right now," said Okoronkwo.
In 2008, police raids revealed an alleged network of such clinics, dubbed baby "farms" or "factories" in the local press.
Cases of child abuse and people trafficking are common in West Africa. Some children are bought from their families to for use as labour in plantations, mines, factories or as domestic help.
Others are sold into prostitution while a few are either killed or tortured in black magic rituals. NAPTIP says it has also seen a trend of illegal adoption.
"There is a problem of illict adoption and people not knowing the right way to adopt children," said Okoronkwo.
Human trafficking is ranked the third most common crime after economic fraud and drug trafficking in the country, according to UNESCO.

People do it EVERY minute, of EVERY hour, of EVERY day, of EVERY year with other animals so I honestly dont see why this is such a big issue, or better yet an issue at all....

Animal breeding/farms is just that, may it be a cow, dog, whale, snail or human everything else is just people being stupid and distancing ourselves from that kingdom.....

Anyways that's my opinion, may seem morbid, and you know not of the 'norm' way of thinking but hell when you look at the big picture im actually thinking like 90% of all the other animals....

Woah, I didn't expect that, actually.

I watched a movie based on human trafficking it made me so angry and sick, even hearing the topic makes me want to grab an oozy and turn into Rambo really I would like to to do real harm to people who do this, and what they do with the people they traffic.

I should of never watched that movie, I can not handle things like that.

Okay gonna take myself away from this topic before my blood starts boiling again.

I'm only happy for them cause they're black.

Hmm.... that's pretty dark, but don't we do the same with common farm animals? Well, the only next step is if they raised the babies to eat. Hmm... I recall reading something similar to this...

This is sickening. How could anyone think of buying and selling people. Then again slavery was common until only relatively recently. When will this end?

Indeed, it's completely okay to do this because we do it to animals.
Just like it's okay to keep people in slavery.
