Trafficking & Modern Slavery - Africa Expert Witness

African trafficking routes to Europe - particularly from Nigeria, Ghana, and West Africa - generate significant UK asylum and National Referral Mechanism cases. Expert witnesses analyse trafficking patterns, juju and ritual oath exploitation, and country conditions supporting credibility assessments.

Reports address whether return would expose claimants to re-trafficking, state protection from trafficking networks, and the role of corruption and complicity in origin countries.
