The Edo State Migration Agency (EDMA) recently arrested and paraded more than 20 women in Benin City, for engaging in olosho work.
Most of the women said they only turned to doing olosho work to survive, support their children, and meet basic needs, and expressed willingness to stop if the government would empower and assist them.
A video from the operation showed the women lined up in public while agency officials addressed journalists, describing the raids as part of efforts to curb olosho work, combat human trxfficking, and protect the state’s image.
However, some Olosho's claimed that EDMA officials extorted them and publicly humiliated them by recording and circulating videos of their arrests despite assurances that the footage would not be posted online.
Several alleged that officials demanded between ₦15,000 and ₦50,000 for their release and still shared the videos on social media with their faces visible...

Stella, these women are miscreants, my house is situated between two guest houses in Gra, these girls go about naked, I say naked early in the morning. Going to work in ihama road, you see them standing along the road naked, and when I close from work, they're still there with the drug sellers hustling for customers
ReplyDeleteNaked? We've really lost our shame. God have mercy
DeleteOlosho kuku no get shame. Parading them might be a form of advertisement for some.
ReplyDeleteThey should join hands and sue the officials cos the last time I checked the job they do is not a crime
ReplyDeleteWhy did you go anonymous to express yourself abi you're among them. Just asking for clarification though👀
Delete12.39, Go and do your research then come back and delete this thing you wrote.
DeleteThis work is considered a criminal offence in most part of the world.
DeleteThe girl on pink has bumbum
ReplyDeleteI noticed it too. No need for BBL
DeleteOlosho no be Work ooo

Hello iya Boys
I,m not supporting olosho work but if they re not hurting anyone why the humiliation??? What they need is rehabilitation and not humiliation.they might repent with time.
ReplyDeleteWe sin differently and are all covered by THE GRACE OF GOD.
Olosho business in Benin City eeh, is not stopping anytime soon.
ReplyDeleteThese are even matured ladies. In some locality, you'll find small small girls with Skippy clothes hustling for customers
Skimpy
DeleteIf I hear say they would stop when given a job? Story. Crocodile nor dey change bear bear 😁
ReplyDeleteThey might stop,you never can tell,let them be given a benefit of doubt.
DeleteWhen you have graduates living in a country who cannot secure work for years, and where so many citizens must travel to distant shores for mere survival, then what is expected of those with less education.
ReplyDeleteThis work is done everywhere, even in the so-called modest countries and those under strict law. I’m not sure what the humiliation is supposed to achieve. They are working, not robbing the country blind through corruption, doing rituals, or kidnapping and ki!!ing ppl. There are a great many worst actions in the nation that what these women are doing. Even the police bribing them are slimy.
Those who desire to leave this line of work should be helped, those who are happy with their work should be left to their happiness.
Dont mind the hypocrites. Go to Mammy road (Boundary road), Mararaba, you will see police patronizing the prostitutes. So shameless, they even park their operational vehicle in front of the mammy. The are inside fucking the same prostitutes they are complaining about.
DeleteYou want to leave soft life to be doing 9/5? The most funniest thing I have read today. Enders shall never wond.
ReplyDeleteLmao @ Enders shall never wond
DeleteNeesolah
Too bad..naija..
ReplyDeleteHmmm. Some of them Circumstances beyond their control pushed them into it.
ReplyDeleteI dey tell you.
DeleteWhy would the security officials show their faces? It's not fair
