Prostitution allegation: Edo Women demand apology from Mrs. Obaseki

Women from various organizations in Edo State over the weekend in Benin demanded that Mrs Betty Obaseki, the wife of APC candidate in the state apologize to all Edo women over a statement, she allegedly made accusing the past PDP administration for contributing to the problem of prostitution among Edo women in the state.
They demanded she tenders an unreserved apology in all national dailies. 

Deaconess Regina Oviasu who addressed the women said that it is a something to worry about that Obaseki intends to lead Edo women she tagged as prostitutes.

She said:
“I want to stand and say that Mrs. Obaseki should apologise to all Edo women as mothers, wives, sisters, and daughters for the statement she made. 
She does not know Edo women. An Edo woman has integrity. She commands respect. She is hardworking. I think it’s a slip of the tongue on her part, and she must apologise”.
Former Executive Director of the Edo State Poverty Alleviation Agency in the APC government, Chief Evelyn Igbafe also complained about Edo women being labeled as prostitues by Mrs Obaseki.
She said:
“We are not happy that a woman who has a husband who wants to be the governor of Edo state will tag Edo women as prostitutes. We reject her aspiration. She can never become the first lady of Edo State. We will not close our eyes and allow such a woman who is not even from Edo State to tarnish our hard earned image”.

    2. How dare you tag a woman a bitch? Perhaps your mother is one that's why you shamelessly address a responsible woman in that manner!
      She may have escalated the situation but she certainly did not lie about it! Foolish faggot!!

  5. C'mon she said they contributed not they were the chief architect of it. Tell me if unemployment,favouritism,corruption etc has not contributed to prostitution and other ills in the society.
    PDP can retaliate by saying APC has contributed to herdsmen killings and hardship in the country
    I see nothing personal here. Just politician talk

  11. Mrs Obaseki is right.A place where a large number of mothers sponsor and push their daughters to Europe and other parts of the world for prostitution.let them face the truth and correct the issue instead of pretending it does not exist.

  12. The fact that the cartel of those that take girls to Italy for prostitution make Benin their route does not mean all the girls taken into prostitution 're Edo girls. Judging from those that 've been repatriated in recent times there were ladies even from far north, east and west amonsts them. The woman was been rational she shld apologise and hide her face forever.

  15. They should shut up. I from Edo state. I will tell u that it is very true. Parents struggle even sell their properties to send their children to Italy to do prostitution. They are. Very proud of it. Even wives leave their husbands and children to Italy to hustle. Although there are still a few of them with dignity.

  18. @Quebec, as much as I dislike the insensitivity of Uju in her comment, the Edo angle to prostitution in Europe is very real. A situation where the overwhelming majority of women trafficked for prostitution into Europe are from Edo is alarming. Any reasonable state government would have gone out of its way to counter it but I suspect that they shy away from it because they can't provide alternative employment or source of revenue. Also I'm quite certain that the high number if Edo women trafficked into prostitution in Europe is because the people controlling the illegal racket are mostly Edo indigenes and prefer to use Edo girls because they are easily accessible to them and their associates, and because they understand the psychology of their own women and how to control / intimidate them. It's definitely not because Edo women like prostitution more than other tribes in Nigeria.

    Meanwhile, let's not even go into talk about perpetrators of rituals and fetishism.

  22. Shut up. Na lie she talk before? Most of you sponsor the poor Edo village girls to go to Italy and prostitite to make money. You use them as sex slaves. All she said is that she will try and tackle it when she comes into power. PDP is sponsoring women to twist what Mrs Obaseki said to gain campaign grounds. It will not work because who God has blessed shall no man curse. God will make the best person win no matter how hard you try. So PDP try harder in desperation and keep fooling yourselves. That's how you lied against Oby Ekwesili. Give up the act and change your evil ways of looting and stealing govt funds and twisting people's innocent speech. Fools

  24. I am an Edo lady and i dont agree with all these PDP useless women. Mrs Obaseki never said all Edo women are prostitutes. She only said those sponsoring young girls to Italy will be dealt with and she will try and stop the human trafficking to Italy for prostitution. And so what if she is not an Edo woman? Is Ishiomole's wife an Edo woman? Was Babangida's wife a hausa woman? Please let's stop tribalism here and focus on the way forward. All these controvertial statements by PDP will not work. Let the best person win!

  25. Let's face it, Mrs Obaseki only said the bitter truth and she did not refer to all Edo woman. She only referred to the ones that are involved in the business of going to Italy and deceiving young teenage girls and later turn them into sex slaves. PDP was in power for 8 years and did not do anything about it. Now that APC wives want to do something about it, they are twisting what Mrs Obaseki said just as they twisted what Oby Ekwesili said. PDP desperate looters and thieves try harder because you will never smell that sit in Jesus Name

  28. PDP was in power for eight good years and they could not tackle the problem of trafficking young girls to Italy for prostitution. Somebody has identified the needs of the very poor Edo family and wants to proffer solution so that they will stop giving out their children to these traffickers. So, what has Mrs Obaseki done wrong in trying to provide solution to the problem? Mrs Obaseki did not refer to all Edo females, she was only referring to those involved in the disgraceful act. Please PDP should go and take several seats

  30. Has hard as this is to admit its just the truth. Benin girls leave Nigeria n even risk their lives following road and crossing that deadly sea just to go n prostitute in Europe. Plus I just broke up wd my benin gf for dz same reason. N she made it very clear to me that she is doing it because she wants to change the situation of her family... well it doesnt mean other tribes dont prostitute too.. but the rate at which benin people do it ehn... its just too much.. nevertheless there are still very good ones there too.
