GuyfawkesAB:Very typical of Black Africans to make a National issue a tribal and ethnic issue. I don't have helps because i don't need any but i've personal experiences of how Children have been absorded in families. For some of them,it has been the only means of survival. Child house helps is not an abuse or slavery, on the other hand Child labour and maltreatment of househelps,both child and adult is a form of slavery. In Slavery, human beings are sold off to their masters, Under Househelps, these children are put under the care of guardians. Househelp and indectured servitude is not an illegal culture in Africa as long as the child is not maltreated or denied his right. Stay away from ethnic bigotry if you must respond to my post. |

I think slavery is when you are held against your will. To the best of my knowledge, this househelp thing is more of child labour when it involves children. My parents had a few helps when we were young. They were not children, they were Teens or Adults, they were like cheap baby-sitters who got paid, fed, accommodated and left whenever they wanted to leave. They were never maltreated. Some even maltreated us. Personally, i don't even support it. But i suppose, there are some extreme forms, but i don't think people leave their children with slaves! or chain-shackle them or keep them against their will. And this is trivializing the real issue here. What is happening in Libya is a 100x worse. When your housegirl runs away, do you go after her and bring her baack to your house against her will! Nobody does that!!! Some Nigerians fit medical bills for their helps, train their children, look after their families, even sponsor them abroad on holidays. Do you do that for slaves |
Re: Eldee On Slavery In Libya: Those With House Helps Are Also Involved In Slavery by Nobody: 9:49pm On Nov 29, 2017 |
Any child less than 16 brought by a madam or Aunty or Uncle to work for you is wrong and close to a slave. The correct term is child labour. Or have you not heard of children "maids" running away? It's a shame that many of our parents may have engaged in this because they didnt know better. But it's a quite complicated issue because sometimes these kids have lost their parents and the govt in Nigeria has nothing in place to cater for them. However, I think it should be illegal employing anyone under 16 to work as a maid. Usually, it's those madams that collect all the money. That is very wrong. If however, the real parents bring the child directly to you, then that may be okay and only because the govt in Nigeria has no program to cater for minors that don't have any care or support. In advance countries, child protective service would take control in such situations. PS: This is a separate issue entirely (though still important) from the arabs taking a whole race as slaves and selling them for ordinary $400. Money of Iphone 8. 2 Likes |

What will you call all those people that employ corpers to do Tradefair job on contract for 6 months without salary, transport fare or any allowances and still not pay them after 6 months and the employees will be going about in suit under the sun ...is that slavery too |

The idiots on this thread supporting the gross inhumanity of child labour (and slavery) are probably descendants of the equally idiotic Africans, who taught it wise to sell their fellow Africans in slavery to the white man. It's a huge shame, really, that some of us have refused to mentally evolve. 1 Like |

maasoap: My point is where is it happening that eldee has seen it and I haven’t employed a minor before I’m just saying for someone with his knowledge and as well travelled you want to compare what’s going on in Libya to this Organs are being harvested people are being sold and killed Man it’s just not the same |

KemjikaEme: I actually think you are the one sounding stupid here You are trying to downplay black man inhumanity to his fellow black man, with the way millions of kids are slaving away in various homes in Nigeria and being treated badly, denied basic rights, and in many cases, are not sent to school. I have seen how these people are treated and cheated, and it is a form of slavery, whether you like it or not. There is nothing to rationalize there 1 Like |

KemjikaEme: Mistreated, overworked and starved minor who has nowhere to run to, who doesn't know her way back home are not better than slave. Have you been reading news lately concerning this child slavery? It is worse than adult slavery because these minors are completely helpless. Many of them have been tortured to death. If you engage in such, listen and quit. 1 Like |

maasoap:you need to have research conducted when you make bold statements like that not just a broad statement it’s common in a particular area what Areas then it’s not something that’s really common in society the stories I’m reading it’s even within their family they are exploited sent to live with an uncle or so that decides they should work anyway his point is taken but no where in the world can you compare what’s happening in Libya to that Nigeria has evolved o and if there is barbarism it’s in areas where there is intimidation and fear so no one speaks out however it doesn’t make it right if some are not paying let them do what’s right the wicked ones will get their come uppance |

KemjikaEme: Child trafficking and labour is criminal by modern moral and justice standards. You're just a fvcking idi0t trying to sound smart. It's not uncommon to observe that most arseholes, like you, justify their barbaric views with "African culture". Indentured service indeed. You're pretending like there's some skill to be gained. Like you don't know most never go to school, are trafficked from neighbouring countries, never gain employable skills, get treated like dirt, sexually and emotionally abused etc. It doesn't make it right even if their parents/guardian agreed to it. You, and many others who share this view, are intellectually dishonest piece of sh!t people. 3 Likes |
