Guess What Bokoharam does to captives

The 2014 Trafficking in Persons Report has revealed that the dreaded Islamist sect, Boko Haram gives out their captives, especially the young girls and women to its members as wives. The report also revealed that due to the forced marriages, the girls and women are forced into sex slavery, domestic servitude as well as forced labour. According to a 2013 report that was obtained from the website of the United States Department of State- www.state.gov, on Tuesday, though posted on June 20, it was also discovered that the Islamist sect recruited children as foot soldiers. "International observers had reported in 2013 that the terrorist group, Boko Haram, recruited and used child soldiers as young as 12-years-old, as well as abducted women and girls some of whom were subjected to domestic servitude, forced labour, and sex slavery through forced marriages to its militants" the report states. The report noted that Nigeria is yet to fully adhere to the smallest standards aimed at eradicating human trafficking, although the federal government is currently making positive efforts in doing so by increasing anti-trafficking prosecutions and convictions
