OPINION BY LILLIAN AGBEYEGBE: Lessons from the travails of the Ekweremadus | TheCable

can be a trafficking victim at any age. The recruitment tactics of traffickers are known to include “misrepresentation of opportunities” and “posing as benefactors.” If you are looking for a job and someone says I have this job that will pay you this amount of money, won’t you take it? If you find out that they are not paying you what they said, you should leave, right? But not if they have threatened you, they are holding onto your documents, or you feel like you have nowhere else to go.

Coercion is not that you tied a person’s hand, or you held a gun to their head. If I am poor, and you offer me a meal in exchange for sex, that is coercion. Note that this is not greed. If a person has food to eat, or somewhere to stay, and I’m trading sex for what you offer me, you can say the person is being greedy. But when the choice is between going with you or sleeping at the bus stop, no, that is not greed. That is coercion.
