Nigerian-American
rapper turned IT Consultant Olanrewaju Dabiri, popularly known as Eldee has
condemned what he describes as “other forms of slavery” that exists in Africa and beyond the continent. Following the
recent news about the thriving slave trade of African migrants in Libya ,
eLDee has come out to air his own views on the issue, saying that we need to
inspect all the ways in which we enslave others.
eLDee called out everyone for
only making a statement about an issue when it is convenient.
The other forms of slavery he
mentioned were child labour, underpayment of the house helps from different
African countries who work like slaves from dusk until dawn only to make N10,000
a month, declaring that they must be put to a stop.
In a series of tweets he
posted, he made it clear that everyone who had ever paid for a maid was just as
guilty as the slave trader in Libya
