A Nigerian lady simply identified as Rose has shared her ordeal of mistreatment while working as a nanny for a Nigerian couple in the United Kingdom.
Rose, in her early 20s, learned of the UK job opportunity through a family friend from church in Nigeria, who informed her that a wealthy Nigerian couple was seeking a nanny for their daughter.
‘I felt so exhausted… so empty. This was not what they promised me,’ Rose said.
Rose traveled to the UK on a six-month tourist visa, expecting to care for the couple’s daughter and pursue her education with their sponsorship.
Upon arrival, Rose found the couple initially ‘nice,’ but soon discovered that the work expectations were vastly different from what was promised.
‘That’s when it dawned on me – ‘Oh, these people actually bring me here to work for them as a slave,’ Rose said.
Rose endured grueling work hours, unpaid wages, and verbal abuse from the couple.
At one point, the wife returned to Nigeria, leaving Rose alone with the husband, who subjected her to sexual, emotional, and physical abuse.
‘He raped me countless times because I can’t talk to anybody. My life was hell,’ Rose said.
Feeling trapped and isolated, Rose eventually confided in a friend and reported the abuse to the police.
‘I didn’t have that confidence anymore because I didn’t see myself as good enough; I didn’t see myself as a human being,’ Rose said.
Despite reporting the matter to the police and receiving initial recognition from the Home Office as a victim of modern slavery, no charges have been brought against the couple, and the investigation is ongoing.
Rose currently resides in a Salvation Army safe house in Cambridgeshire, trying to rebuild her life.”
