Nigerian singer and song writer, Charles Chukwuemeka Oputa better known as Charly boy or Area Fada led a group of activists to protest at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs against the Libya Slave trade.
They used masking tapes to cover their mouths and iron chains to cuff themselves as they protested.
Libya has recently been brought to the screens, mostly on social media, following claims of a slave trade boom, alleged killings of migrants and human trafficking.
