Somali girls being sold off by their parents as SEX SLAVES
Kinda disturbing to read this happen but this is turning into an epidemic
"Like in Asha’s case, most of the relationships do not last long. The man may come for his wife after two or three years of marriage. And even if he comes immediately, as happened to Asha, he will first expose the naïve girl to all sorts of perversion.
And he may not necessarily continue making love to his bride who, in any case, is a stranger. Once he has his fill he moves over to the next victim. So the unions invariably end in separation.
As happened in Mandera Town early this year, a civil servant married off her two secondary school daughters to young Somalis working in the US. A resident recalls: "After the wedding, the men came and started doing all sorts of bad things to the girls. They would drink with them and mess up in public. The two guys then divorced the girls and went back to the US."
She explains that the girls could not go back to school as they had been stigmatised. This forced their mother to move to another area. The residents say the woman bought a house in a big town with the money paid to her as bride price.
Several other girls are said to have turned to prostitution after being dumped by their husbands in the US, Canada, the UK and South Africa. The same fate has befallen their colleagues in Garissa Town.
Some have hired rooms in the sprawling slums of Windsor, Bosnia and California on the outskirts of the town which they use as brothels."

"Somali girls being sold off by their parents as SEX SLAVES"
Just the thought of that disgusts me. We can't assume everything we read nowadays, Their's a bit of exaggeration and propaganda which tilts the true. Can't consume their untruthful claims unless it's been broadcasted by BBC, until then I don't buy one bit of it.
