Despite Severe Health Issue, Nigerian Domestic Help In Oman Locked Up, Prevented From Returning Home

A Nigerian woman working as domestic help in Oman has been locked up in a room by her employer for about five days now.

In a footage sent to SaharaReporters, Funke said her stomach had swollen and her employer was unwilling to release her.

Before her plight got to this level, Funke said she had reached out to the Omani police, who promised to help her return to Nigeria as soon as international flights were allowed to resume operations.

When SaharaReporters reached out to her, she said her boss had also agreed to release her when the airport was opened.

In support of reporting, is there a way Sahara Reporters can get this video to the attention of the right Ministry in order for this lady and any other person to receive help. I think this calls for urgency before she dies over there.

We just have to keep advocating it always... That coming to Arabs country for Job's, mostly House help job is a suicide mission.
Some of u in this mess is aware of it..
But u think were lieing, that dey don't want you to go abroad.
Esther... Try and check for Nigeria embassy in Oman if there is any.I pray u find favour by God grace.
Or still beg ur agent, to rescue you.
Tho most of dem are evil because of money they will ask you to sign a binding contract,
