Woman trafficking is the recruitment, transportation, transfer her boring or receipt of persons, by means of threat or use of force of other forms of deception of the abuse of power or of position of vulnerability or of benefits to achieve the consent of a person having control over another person for the purpose of exploitation. Porous borders and desperately poor economic conclusions in west and central African sub-region have prompted people to migrate to trade and farm. But poverty has led families into more desperate measures as green seen in the increasing number of children and young people being trafficked into exploitative labour and prostitution (Akinbayo 1998)

    In Nigeria, children have traditionally been as assets to assists with house business and farm chores. The socialization process and its related out within the social safely net of the community. However, with increasing unemployment, a weak institutional frame work and a breakdown of the extended family system, millions of children have been forced into new types of labour that are exploitative, hazardous and prejudicial to their welfare and development, middle men have now emerged who exploit the desperation and ignorance of parents particularly those in the rural area to produce children and exploitative labour this as become known as child trafficking. As child labour and trafficking in the African region began increasing media attention studies for a conducted to confirm the extend of the problem UNICEF constructed a pilot study in 1998 on the solution in the southern Nigeria border town of Calabar Ugo Owerri port-headcount and Lagos and found that 40% of Nigeria girls living on trafficking for prostitution activities.  In addition, regional conferences in continuo in 1998 and in Libreville in 2000, sties more light on the problem. The conference called for concerted action at the country and girls trafficking with appropriate laws, sensitization programme and bilateral agreement between countries on the sub-region. Specifically the Libreville plat form of legal frame works and improving border patrols repatriation, reliabilitation and reintegration of trafficking children (Ebigbo 1997). Many people assisted in the development of this report, while each one’s contribution is most warmly appreciated, special motions must be made of professor peter O. Ebigbo, the lead consultant on this report, who brought expensed know ledged of child labour and girls trafficking to the project. Dozens of federal, state and local government partners contributed and continue to reduce the problem and effect of child trafficking. There are also NGOS addressing the problem, many of whom are noted active organizations. An example of an innovative practice in the war against child trafficking is the establishment of a skill acquisition center by India renaissance in Edo State. Also India renaissance was established in july 1999 in response to the rising incidence of drug abuse, drug trafficking. Many girls from Edo State, mostly in secondary schools unable to with stand the pressures from parents and family members, progressively came to seek, refuge at India renaissance.

          As most of the girls are repatriated from Haley, India renaissance is working in partnership with the Italian Government and two Italian based NIGOS, TAMPED and CARITAS, as part of a transactional approach to reaccept this modern-day slave trade. India renaissance is also collaborating with the committee for the dignity of women and hood, a group out of the caloric church in Benin.
