Several Nigerian returnees recently rescued by the Nigerian government from Lebanon have recounted terrible experiences in the middle Eastern country.
Temitope Arowolo was on trial for theft and murder while Peace Busari was trafficked and sold, in one instance on Facebook for $1,000 by a Lebanese, Wael Jerro.

Both women were among 29 Nigerians evacuated from Lebanon by the Nigerian Government who arrived at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja on Saturday Afternoon.
While speaking briefly to journalists upon arrival, 31 yr old Arowolo said Lebanon was hell and warned young Nigerians to stay away from the country.
“I’m happy being home. Going to Lebanon is like (going to) a hell. Nobody knows that will happen there. I advise other girls to stay here in Nigeria and try to make it the way the Lord puts them through, because going outside there was like a hell, not only in Lebanon. What I experienced in Lebanon, I pray even not for Satan to experience it.” she said.
Arowolo had been on trial for allegedly stealing $5,000 and attempting to kill her boss. Her accusers refused to show up in court during her prosecution and she was thereafter granted bail.
It was discovered that Arowolo had been assaulted and sexually abused by the husband of her employer while she was in Lebanon.
