Borno state NSCDC uncovers prostitution ring among students
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, MrĀ 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 āthe 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.
āThe girls donāt usually go out looking for men, as they are being patronised mostly by visitors who come into town for weekend or for a programme.
āOur 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.
āWe, 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.
āBad friends in school are some of the genesis of this form of anti-social behaviour.ā
The commandant, whoĀ gave assurance that the culprits would be made to face the full weight of theĀ law, also urged school authorities to ensure strict monitoring of students
