The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence
Corps (NSCDC) command in Borno on Sunday said it had uncovered a prostitution
ring in various colleges and tertiary institutions in the state. The Corps Commandant, Mr Ibrahim Abdullahi, made this known in
an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Maiduguri. Abdullahi said the culprits were girls aged between 25 and
below.
He added that “the girls have their facilitators and a chief
pimp outside the schools who usually communicate on how to arrange the girls.
They usually charge between N10,000 and above for a night. “The girls don’t usually go out looking for men, as they are
being patronised mostly by visitors who come into town for weekend or for a
programme. “Our investigation also revealed that the teenage girls are also
into various forms of nefarious activities like smoking of cannabis sativa and
abuse of Codein cough syrup.
“We, therefore, want to appeal to parents in particular to
monitor the activities of their children in schools and know the type of
company they keep at all times.
“Bad friends in school are some of the genesis of this form of
anti-social behaviour.”
The commandant, who gave assurance that the culprits would be
made to face the full weight of the law, also urged school authorities to
ensure strict monitoring of students.
