Charly boy group vow to occupy Libyan embassy-libya slave trade

Charly Boy and his group, has vowed to occupy the Libyan Embassy in Abuja in protest against alleged slave auctioning of Nigerians and other Africans in Libya.


A statement jointly signed by Charly Boy, Deji Adeyanju, Ariyo Dare Atoye, and Bako Abdul Usman, on Wednesday night, reads in part:


“We are horrified by the reports and footage of hundreds of Africans, including Nigerians, being sold into slavery by slave dealers in Libya as published by CNN and several other international media houses.
“These videos show men, women and children being sold for as little as $400. They also show the dehumanizing conditions in which these victims are kept, beaten, starved and killed.
“It is shocking to find that slave trade, a horrible part of African history which is best confined to our collective past and best studied to avoid a repeat, is being conducted so brazenly in these modern times.
“As part of efforts to condemns these acts of inhumanity, we shall be holding peaceful sit outs in front of the Libyan Embassy in Abuja, on Thursday November 30th, 2017
“We urge all members of the public and the media to join us as we seek to promote humanity and the dignity of the African person.
