Two Nigerian sex workers sit on a bed in a room, at a bar in Burkina Faso's town of Bobo-Dioulasso 360 kms (220 miles) West of Ouagadougou, June 6, 2020. Both women said they were trafficked from Nigeria and forced into prostitution. Now free from their captors, they're too ashamed to return home without money so they continue sex work. As part of a months-long investigation into sex trafficking and the gold mining industry, The Associated Press met with nearly 20 Nigerian women who said they had been brought to Burkina Faso under false pretenses, then forced into prostitution.
