According to the teenager, she was working as a sales girl in Victoria Island, Lagos before two middle-aged men told her they could help her find a better job abroad.
Police investigations revealed that the two men, Christian Awanebi and Ariwayo Olowede, who pleaded not guilty, allegedly took her to Burkina Faso sometime in 2011.
Mrs Anthonia Mgbemeje of the National Agency for Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP), who led the girl in evidence, said the men promised to help the girl get a job in a super store as a sales girl.
It was further revealed that on getting to Burkina Faso, the teenager was allegedly made to have s*x with men so she could repay N200, 000, the men claimed to have spent on her travel expenses.
