The world was thrown into a state of shock when a documentary by CNN revealed how human traffickers in Libya sold Africans for as low as 400 dollars. The Africans, according to the International Migration Organisation (IMO), are mostly from the sub-region, mostly West Africa. But in a crucial press release signed by the foreign affairs minister, Shirley Ayorkor Botchway, the government says it will be considering setting up an emergency consulate in Libya. www.eagleee.com is gathering that the Ghana mission in Malta had paid a consular visit to the three detention centres in Tripoli namely; Tajoora, Trek Al Sika and Trek Matar. Meanwhile, the press statement has indicated that; "All 168 Ghanaian detainees identified in Libya were not part of the slave trade but rather arrested on illegal migration charge". Foreign affairs minister, Shirley Ayorkor Botchway says the government is currently repatriating all Ghanaians back to the country so as to reintegrate them with family and friends in Ghana.www.Nigerspie.wixsite.com is building a platform where Ghanaians can share local news and own experiences with each other.
