“When I saw the video of my mum crying I felt so sad. I watched the video and couldn’t sleep, people kept calling me. I wouldn’t lie to you, it’s really painful. Nothing should happen to Amoke, I will follow her sister Bola. She doesn’t play with me or allow anything to happen to me. Me too; I can’t let anything happen to her.
When I got to Mali, I got to know I would be working for a Madam; I looked around. The woman said she bought me for 1.5 million naira. I was told I would be doing prostitution.
I was thinking that if I worked and had little money for transport, I wouldn’t go home empty-handed. Let me not deceive you; no matter how hard I worked, I couldn’t gather the money.
Am suffering in Mali, but I kept enduring. I told the lady that we lived together and that if I die, she shouldn’t post it. The people were wicked to me, I once drank hypo in their presence.
I was always calling people in Nigeria, but I didn’t call my mother and children. Mali isn’t better than Nigeria. Let me not lie; I learnt a lot of lessons in Mali. I have lost all hope and thought I would die in Mali.
All the mothers in Nigeria don’t be agree with me, I am not a bad child. Please forgive me. Have made up my mind that Mali is my end”.
