A young Nigerian girl who was trafficked to Cotonou, Benin Republic for prostitution has died. Sewuese passed away on Friday, July 24, 2026, in Benue State after she was brought home sick.
Activist Zege Orkwande, who has been facilitating the rescue of trafficked Benue girls, said investigation is ongoing and those who trafficked her will face the full wrath of the law. “People are asking ‘who took Sewuese to Cotonou’. Trust my process,” he wrote. “The people that trafficked/smuggled her to Cotonou for prostitution will sure face the law and serve in prison uniform. All information gathered. I’m waiting for her to be buried first. REST WELL.”
The case has drawn public attention, with calls for justice under the hashtags #JusticeForSewuese and #EndHumanTrafficking.
Govt should take action over that.
