Help! I’ve suffered enough assault in Egypt — 20-year-old Nigerian lady

Emmanuella Omah, a 20-year-old Nigerian woman, shares her harrowing experience of being sexually assaulted by her employer in Egypt. She traveled to Egypt to work as a house help and support her family, but faced physical, verbal, and emotional abuse from her employers. Her ordeal began when her sponsor misrepresented her experience to the woman she was working for, leading to her being subjected to severe physical abuse, including being slapped and beaten with a large spoon.

Despite her multiple attempts to escape, her employers refused to pay her the promised wages and prevented her from seeking help.
