I Became A Se.x Slave To Both Men And Animal In Russia – 24-year Old Nigerian Lady
The story of a 24-year-old Nigerian woman identified only as Juliet who was tricked into prostitution in Russia where she went to study, has gone viral.
Narrating the the heart-chilling story, a Russian photographer, Tatiana Egorova, revealed that some Nigerian pimps usually lure most girls into sex slavery abroad by promising them good jobs.
Egorova further disclosed that Juliet, who hails from Edo State, went to study Economics in a Russian University only to be tricked into prostitution by a woman after they arrived the airport in Moscow.
The woman reportedly told Juliet that she owed her the money which she paid for their transit and urged her to sell her body to men in order to pay her back.
“Juliet is from Benin City, Edo State and she was first girl I spoke with. Juliet said her neighbor who was later revealed to be working for a gang, suggested to Juliet’s parents to send their daughter to study Economics at a Russian university,” Egorova disclosed.
While quoting Juliet directly, Egorova said, “I’d just finished school and my parents agreed to send me to Russia after they were convinced by a neighbour that it would be best for me.
“My neighbor helped to get a student visa for me. When we landed at Moscow airport, her friend met us and took me to Voronezh, 543km away from Moscow.
“When we arrived Voronezh, the neighbor told me I owed her $45,000, being what she spent on me on transit and I must become a prostitute so as to make money to pay off the debt.
“She took away all my money and passport and with life being so difficult for me, I had to join in the sex work because the woman and her friends tortured me every day for disobeying them.
“I was stranded and left with no other option. I became a sex slave to both men and animals and nothing to show for it because my madam takes all the money.”

No less than seven people were killed, and about 30 more injured, most of them critically, when the Nigerian police and military reportedly opened fire dispersing a crowd of the pro-Biafra marchers at Onitsha in Anambra state on Sunday.
According to some reports from Anambra state, three people were fatally shot dead on the spot and 30 others got bullet wounds when the police and Nigerian navy opened fire to disperse the crowd of the pro-Biafra marchers in Onitsha on Sunday.
More than twenty people were critically wounded and by this Monday morning there were seven people dead as a result of shooting at the demonstrators.
The death toll hasn’t been verified officially yet, but the reports claim that those people were hit with stray bullets.
The crowd gathered under the aegis of the Indigenous People of Biafra which issued official statement condemning the shooting at the unarmed people.
It claims that over 30 people got shot and 7 people were confirmed dead on Monday while 20 more were critically wounded.
“How come our security men find it so easy to kill peaceful IPOB members but won’t lift a finger against the deadly Boko Haram? These brothers were peaceful in their engagement, they weren’t radical or causing any harm according to eye witnesses, they weren’t armed, so why shoot at them?” was said in the IPOB statement.
The agitation for the actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra has been on for some time now. The Republic of Biafra came about when a secessionist state situated in south-eastern of Nigeria tried to break away from Nigeria but were stopped. Biafra was inhabited mostly by the Igbo people and was in existence from 30th May 1967 to 15th January 1970.
The Movement for the Actualization of State of Biafra (MASSOB) is yet to give up the fight to secede from Nigeria. The group have even established a radio station, called Radio Biafra somewhere in Europe.
