DW s Peter Limbourg awards reporter Tobore Ovuorie
Trafficked from Nigeria
The International Organization for Migration (IOM) estimates that 80% of girls arriving in Europe from Nigeria are potential victims of sex trafficking. Ovuorie s best friend was one of them. She succumbed to HIV/AIDS after having been trafficked to Europe.
Back in 2013, Ovuorie was driven by a clear-cut goal: Finding clarity on what had happened to her friend and many others she knew by uncovering the personal stories of thousands of victims trafficked from Nigeria to Italy every year. I had so many gaping holes in me that I needed to fill, Ovuorie said about the investigation in an interview with Pulse Nigeria.
