This is the story of a young Nigerian woman who survived weeks in the desert on her way to what she thought would be a new life in Europe. When she got to France, she did not find the job she was promised. Instead, she received a pair of high heeled shoes, a revealing dress and orders to work the streets. Here is how she fought back. Heather Murdock reports for VOA from Edo State in Nigeria.
