This study pertains to one of the scourges undermining the African society nowadays in A
Daughter for Sale authored by Bisi Ojediran. This novel counts one among texts projecting the traffic in humans
in some African communities. Human trafficking has become a new type of slavery in modern days. This
practice is a notorious problem that is drawing the attention of several intellectuals in the developing countries
where the victims usually come from. This study therefore takes a critical look at the praxis of human trafficking
detriment on the female victims. Bisi Ojediran‟s A Daughter for Sale underscores not only the causes of this
phenomenon but also its consequences on the individual and poor countries. Through the lenses of the
postcolonial theory and socio-criticism, this paper investigates the mechanics through which Ojediran makes
available the phenomenon of trafficking in persons. |
