a flourish chukwurah. flourish how common is modern day slavery in nigeria today. modern this knavery in one theory is very calm one you find that a lot of families are based in villages one their children so eventual to d.c. teens who walk for a wealthy family or travel out of the country you know nigeria is it is a country with around 200000000 people in terms of population and it's a very huge contrie and at the same time poverty is also very intense unemployment is high so you can imagine how all these all these negative factors affect modern day slavery and people being easily deceived made promises that ok if you leave this reality from me you'll be allowed to go to school you'll be given a better life and all of that and all these things just make more then beastly remain on your rice so who are all those well let's call them employers
