The National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons has said it would partner with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to assist Nigerian women in Iraq.
The spokesperson for NAPTIP, Zacks Dauda, disclosed this on Monday.
The Director-General of NAPTIP, Prof. Fatima Waziri-Azi, disclosed that the agency is investigating several rogue labour recruiters who had been reported to be big players in the massive recruitment of Nigerians to Iraq for domestic servitude.
Waziri-Ari alleged that most of the Nigerian young women working there were exploited in diverse ways on a daily basis and now requesting assistance to return home.
