A Law enforcement Officer who makes a statement on TV that he does not know the Law which he is hired by the Government to enforce. African Policemen are very corrupt and foolish. This is a deliberate answer to cover the waterloo Police colleagues who wanted to milk that desperate old woman of money. A very shameful Police Force, its all over in Africa. The most corrupt organization to ever exist, they are mostly criminals and thieves. These are the one's that must be locked up.
Humiliatiin and abuse as well as rape are called sexwork
Lady P and the other sex workers are strong women who face injustice as sex workers. This documentary is important as it sheds light on several aspects of a sex workers life: stigma, violence, violence by law force, poor working conditions, poverty, trafficking but also solidarity among sex workers. I hope Lady P is able to continue supporting and receives funds for her work
That poor baby has no photos of her mom! 😢 She will soon forget her face, and the sound of her voice.
Sierra Leone head of police media: I don’t know what is the law 🤦🏽♀️
i felt so many emotions watching this
“I don’t know the law” but he is head of the police??
Does lady p have any accounts to donate too?
This is a true journalism, good job.
I also think the kidnappers have a network, looking at the route of the journey to mali
Weldon to you and your crew

This is so painful to watch. Bravo to your Journalism Sir.
The police officer doesn't even know what he's talking about. Hiw can you be a police officer and you don't know the procedure?
This documentary was very heartfelt for me and got me crying.
I'm thankful for the two African journalists who made this have a good ending and the miner boy who assisted them with his phone. But what was most sad is that we as Africans have no leadership in any of our countries to help our own people. We only pray for things to happen but give very little tangible action. If not for the United Nations funded intervention program, is it that our people could not do anything to help our own people? All we do is defraud our own kind as if we are just animals.
Why do Africans hate themselves so much?
Very good documentary.
Lady p is such a good and strong women
Wow this is so sad. I pray god protects these children and women. I hope one day I get rich enough to adopt children and give them a better life
OMG 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
I was screaming "If they can send you pictures that means they can send you a location pin dammit!!!"
I am basically crying. What a world? Why why why???
Godbless you ladies stay strong😂
The governments of Africa should fight this sexual harassment in our society!
Lady P is an ANGEL! A HERO. Wow!
When you feel like life is beating you down, BBC News Africa never ceases to prove you wrong.
That Nigerian woman can rot in hell!
Why betray another woman? Why?
Has someone ever wondered why men have such a great disliking for women who do sex work?
Like, why?
Why the hate for?
Yeah you might disagree with the lifestyle but don’t hurt anyone or k*ll anyone.
😑
I wish there were more men like the journalist.
I wish there were more men who cared about justice. It’s a men’s world so I’m quite sure if the world had more men who were genuine and men of integrity, evil wouldn’t be so rampant.
This is a great documentary 👏 im so happy the girls made it out alive and home safely ❤️ ♥️
I cnt express how I feel
😢😢😢
This is why the Federal Reserve must be audited F*** Jacob Rothschild
Why can't they just stop this job 😢😢😢 it's really risky 😭😭
What can be done? How can we stop this? It seems as though spreading awarennes is only the beginning of a long change to take place, that we may not even live up to see the end of. I hope for the best, but I also feel completely hopeless. These are only few out of thousands of cases, let's not forget about the ones who never reunited with their family, but died in missery.
Tears started falling at 18:06. So sad that a young girl has to think like this. May God heal these people and provide them with peace. The government needs to to better!
they are like men in drag
The amount of trauma lady p dealt with
❤
well done BBC
If lady P was 14 in 2002 that makes her the same age as me. Really takes this story to another level for me. What different lives we've had…I hope I can one day do more for my fellow African women…
The police doesn't know the law?! WTF
Isaata kidnapping story doesn't make sense,, how did the kidnappers crossed all this boarders with them easily,, as a Ghanaian 🇬🇭 crossing into Togo alone is not a joke, so IK and isata have some explanation to make
This is so sad. May the Lord God Almighty, who is rIch in mercy help these ladies in the greatest ever Name throughout the entire universe of our lovely Lord, Master and Saviour JESUS CHRIST🙏
This's heartbreaking to a Ugandan like me who was born as the only boy among 9 girls 😭😭
Serrea Leonne
I'm hearty broken with our Africa
