She warned others to resist any temptation of any supposed job offers in Libya, Mali as it’s all journey to slavery.
Adeola said she was promised, through someone close , to get employed in a pharmacy only to be told she had been sold to a “ madam” on arrival, a move she vehemently resisted.
Adeola said she did not get in touch with her family out of shame of unfulfilled dreams and expressed happiness to be back.
