Fani-Kayode insists African Leaders must rise against modern slave trade in Libya

Femi Fani-Kayode, former Aviation Minister, on Tuesday called on African leaders to condemn the modern slave trade in Libya.

Sharing a footage of someone roasted alive while an alleged police officer was standing by, the former Minister said that’s what Libyans do to fellow Africans looking to transit to Europe.

The former Minister claimed that Africans are sold into slavery, mutilated, tortured or worked to death by the Libyans.

In a tweet via his social media handle, the PDP Chieftain wrote: “Roasted alive! This is what Libyans do to sub-saharan Africans who are looking for a transit point to Europe.

“They sell them into slavery and either murder, mutilate, torture or work them to death. All this yet not a word of condemnation from @MBuhari or other African leaders!.”

Fani-Kayode, had yesterday faulted President Muhammadu Buhari’s silence over the sale of some Nigerians in Libya.

He wondered why Buhari was yet to speak on the modern day slave trade involving his citizens.
