she stabbed my sister with a knife in her hand, she stabbed me with a plate,

so she broke a plate on my head and my head burst open and just started pouring down my whole body.

She would get pepper, open our eyes, put it inside our eyes to make us blind that we couldn't see.

Sometimes they'll lock me in the bedroom for days and it got

so bad that I would just start eating the wall because there would be no food, there would be nothing.

So we were being picked into this country to become child labourers.

Can you introduce yourself to us?

My name is Destiny Ayo Vaughan.

I'm currently a student studying at Queen's University.

I'm also the founder of a nonprofit called Mindgap Ireland, which is an organization that's now focused on fighting child sexual abuse through education.

Can you speak a bit about your childhood?

I was originally born in Nigeria.

When I was born in Nigeria, I never knew my biological parents.

I lived with my auntie and we grew up in extreme poverty.

So the home that we lived in had no doors, it had no toilets.

There were three other families that lived with us in that home as well.

And the only things that I knew of my parents was

that they had moved to another country and they just didn't bring me

but I never actually knew the reason why they didn't bring me and one day

my auntie told me that I was going to be going to school for the first time

but I found out

that the only reason why I would be going to school was to meet my future husband

and at the time I was only five years old

and he was a good few years older than me he

was actually way more older than me probably more in his

20s going on to maybe his later 20s than 10 years

younger did you understand what marriage was no i didn't understand what it was i just knew

that i didn't want to do it

because many girls in my village did get married off very young

and i knew what their lives were like because

when i would go to um so there'll be a marketplace

and some of the girls that would get married would be working in this marketplace

and they just looked miserable and they could never play

so i just knew that i didn't want to be like them

so i remember i said to my auntie i don't want to get married

but i didn't actually know what marriage actually meant

when you were engaged to this person like did you started

to make a connection with him did someone force you to

have a relationship like emotionally so what they would do was they would tell me

so they bribed me into agreeing to it so they told me

that I would get to go to school so that means

that every time I was going to school after school I would have to go

and meet him because his market was as I was walking back from school

so I would meet him every single day after school

and he would tell me like oh I have something for you

so he would give me food especially coming from poverty what he had I wasn't used to it

so he would always give me food

so then every time I'll be going I'll be thinking i'm

so excited to go there because i'll be getting something

so it was kind of like they were grooming me into

that situation to think that i was going to be a great life if i agreed to it

not that i had a choice but

but since he was working why didn't he like engaged a more mature woman

so in the culture

that i was brought up in it's very normalized for older men to marry young children

so a lot of people there like for example my parents

is 10 years between my parents my mom had me

when she was my dad was 30

and like my mom was quite young i think she had me around 19

or something so it's very normalized for young people to get married to older men and it's more of this

more of a

that they don't want an older woman they want children how was he besides the fact

that he was giving you food

and stuff how how he was treating you yeah he was

very nice that's the the thing I remember he was very

very nice like he was always like giving me something

and that's the big thing I remember every time I'll go he'll give me something

so it's that kindness that I always received

so in my eyes I always seen him as a good person

but as I got older obviously I look at

that situation completely different I don't see him as a good person I understand

that that was just grooming and he knew better but he didn't care you stayed with him like how many years

so what happened was

when I was supposed to be engaged to him I was actually supposed to be married off to him

that week yes so I was supposed to be married off to him

that week I was engaged to be married

and that's the reason I was allowed to go to school I had to learn how to count

so I could work in his shop so

that week I happened to a woman turned up to my

house she never met her before don't know who she is

and I just remembered

that she offered my family a lot of money for me to meet a sister I didn't know I had

and she was gonna bring me to meet my biological parents

so that's the only reason why I didn't get married

because of this stranger talking about your biological parents were they against it at all

or no how was their reaction nobody was against it like

nobody ever tried to stop it it was actually it's quite normalized especially in Nigeria

and the culture that is brought up there like a lot of girls there are married at

that age and a lot of girls there um

so i don't know if you know about like the

that goes on with young girls what happens is

when you get married they end up actually cutting you as well

so they end up like cutting you so you stay pure for your husband

and they do that to all the girls that get married

so if i had stayed i would have actually gone

and down below so i can stay pure for my husband i'm sorry

if this is a bit intimate

but did you have any like intimate relationship with him

or no so i was very lucky

100

because i had left before we could get married to consummate the marriage

101

so i i had actually never gone to actually stay with him physically

102

because i had left the week of the time i was

103

supposed to be given to him obviously this woman turned up at my door

104

and then the next day she she bring me to a different city to go meet my sister

105

so i didn't know i had a sister

106

we met each other with my granny and that's the first time we've ever heard of each other

107

and then she took us to another city

108

which i think was lagos at the time

109

and she bring us to this house

110

and i remember in this house it was the complete opposite

111

to what we were used to there was toilets those doors

112

it was two stories there was ice cream it was things that we never seen before so we taught, oh my God, we wanna stay here forever.

113

And then that's when they told us, we're bringing you to the airport the next day.

114

We want you to try and get through the airport, but if anybody asks you questions, we're gonna tell you the lies that you have to tell.

115

And you just keep telling them that you're gonna go meet your parents.

116

And then the next day they brought us to the airport.

117

They gave us envelopes that go around our necks

118

a passport they gave us like a bucket of cash like a lot of cash and it was for our parents

119

and then they also gave us sweets and our ticket

120

so what they were basically doing was they were basically trafficking us into ireland

121

so we were actually supposed to give the money to our parents to for them allowing us to go through

122

but we didn't realize at the time that

123

that was actually what was happening so what happened was

124

if you're going to an airport

125

and you're a child there has to be an adult with you

126

but what they did was they didn't actually do

127

that they were actually they bribed somebody to just let us through to the airport by ourselves

128

because how how old were you i was five my sister was six you were five yeah

129

so we traveled here completely by ourselves so

130

once you arrived in ireland who who received you again

131

so we got off the plane and we were still running around the airport again

132

because we were just standing there

133

and next you know i heard somebody shouting my name destiny stop running around

134

and i turned around and the guy in front of me looked exactly like me me

135

and my dad were the image of each other we looked the exact same

136

so that's how i knew that that was my dad at the airport

137

and they had another baby at the time

138

so they had another daughter with them

139

and then we went with them back to ireland well back to their house in Ireland.

140

Did you feel like at home?

141

Did you feel like welcomed and were they happy to receive you?

142

Yeah they were happy to receive me but not my sister and I didn't really understand.

143

I was like they were so happy to see me but it was like my sister didn't care.

144

It was like nearly like she was a burden to be there

145

which I obviously being so young I didn't really care

146

but I didn't really understand do i mean so i didn't really see

147

that change in how they were treating both of us at the time

148

so you stayed with them like you went to school yes

149

so what happened was when we got into ireland a social worker actually came to our house

150

so the day before we could go to school a social worker turned up to house i don't know

151

if that was because maybe somebody reported the fact

152

that there was kids running around airport um

153

and we were told to lie so we had to lie to the social worker

154

that everything was fine blah blah blah blah which we did

155

and then we ended up going to school then after

156

so we went to school as normal

157

but in ireland children have to go to school so

158

if they don't go to school that will be reported you can't have a child

159

so they were allowing us to go to school but then

160

when we got back home they were locking us in the house for what reason

161

so they didn't want us to go outside

162

because they we were actually being brought here to work

163

which obviously we didn't realize at the time

164

so we were being trafficked into this country to become child laborers

165

so me and my sister we've actually been working since we were children

166

so my dad was a dj at the time

167

and he made videos at the time as well

168

so we would go with him well it was my sister first she would go at night with him

169

and she would help him in work and then it changed to me

170

when she left i would go with him

171

and i would be helping him until like 4 a.m

172

so i could leave at 10 p.m

173

and i would not come back home until 4 a.m the next day

174

because i was so young i didn't really understand what it was

175

and i think

176

because i was going with my dad i was more protected from what was happening at these parties

177

so i didn't understand these parties were actually parties to traffic children

178

so a lot of these parties it was men who were at these parties for the children

179

and all these children that were there did not belong to the parents

180

so what was happening was people were bringing children into Ireland

181

that weren't their own children and the Irish government weren't checking them

182

so they weren't doing DNA tests actually checked

183

that these children belonged to them and

184

so they would bring them to the country

185

and then they would bring them to these parties where the children would be trafficked at these parties

186

and then you never see them again

187

and then there'll be a bunch of new children and it was like a cycle that went on for five years.

188

So I was very lucky that in my situation I was more protected because my dad was the one

189

kind of over a lot of these parties

190

but I did witness a lot of what was going on

191

and I was very young to be witnessing a lot of what was going on

192

so I was very much aware of what was happening at the time.

193

I remember my neighbors were knocking on my door all the time to get me to come outside.

194

It was very rare I could go outside

195

so they were actually trapping me in the house so they would lock me in the house.

196

Sometimes they would lock me in the bedroom for days

197

and it got so bad that I would just start eating the wall because there would be no food, there would be nothing.

198

So I would start eating the wall in my room just to get food.

199

The only time I could leave was literally

200

when I was going to school or

201

if my parents were leaving for a long period of time

202

but we were always locked either in the house

203

or in the bedroom

204

and i never left how was your mom treating you she

205

was more of the more physical abuser she was quite aggressive

206

like her form of abuse was actually to the point where

207

she it felt like she wanted to kill us she stabbed

208

my sister with an on her hand she stabbed me with a plate

209

so she broke a plate on my head and my head burst open

210

and just started pouring down my whole body to the point

211

of where to this day the wound still opens she got an iron

212

and burnt me with the iron i still have the scar on my leg

213

so she was very physical and

214

if we refuse to do something let's say we refuse to go to one of the parties

215

that they want us to go to she would get pepper

216

open our eyes put it inside our eyes to make us blind

217

that we couldn't see to the point where we would just agree to do it we found out later on

218

that my sister actually wasn't their child so my sister was actually my cousin

219

so she never actually belonged to them

220

and then for me I think it was a thing of where like she had me

221

when she was so young

222

that I feel like she was like a victim to my dad

223

and then it just continued

224

so it was getting to the point where the abuse is getting

225

so bad to the point of where I genuinely thought

226

that my mom was going to kill me if we stayed in

227

that house and I started noticing some things in the where my parents started giving us medication

228

that we didn't know what it was like we would pass

229

that for hours at a time the parties were coming into our house

230

so they were starting to have it in their actual family home

231

and it just got to the point of where

232

and then they tried to marry me off two more times then

233

so it got to a point where I was worried

234

that it was going to happen to my siblings

235

because I had a younger brother at the time

236

and a younger sister so I went to school and I told a friend what was happening

237

and her mom was actually a teacher

238

so she told her mom what was happening

239

and then her mom was the one that called social services

240

and then they took me out of the house then well from school they just never brought me back home

241

so i was put into foster care because of child abuse

242

and neglect but they didn't know about the trafficking

243

or the child labor at the time

244

so the way the court case happened in iron is very different

245

when you're put into care you don't always get a court case you just get put into care

246

and your parents just lose custody so that's what happened with me

247

so they didn't find out a little bit of my story until i was 16

248

so i was a good bit into foster care system

249

and even still then because it was so i was a lot older

250

and they hadn't searched my home when i went to the foster care the videotapes

251

that my dad took of all the abuse

252

that they were doing to other children they got rid of it

253

so the evidence was completely gone so they couldn't bring my case to court.

254

The family I lived with were really good, they always treated me as part of their own and so I was very lucky in that sense, they really did look after me.

255

I think the part

256

that I found really hard was it's very hard to go

257

from living in an African family to then live in somewhere where you're the only black person, it's a very big cultural change and I think

258

because I was somebody who was going through a lot of depression at the time, anxiety at the time trauma a lot of children do not understand

259

that so i experienced like

260

so much bullying to the point of where i feel like mentally i was just getting even worse

261

and more drained like i remember i would lock myself in my bedroom for like days

262

and i would not come out i wouldn't even eat

263

so i was treating myself and how i was being treated

264

when i was back home because that was what was normal to me.

265

I think for me I wish that somebody had actually believed me

266

when I first spoke up about it and I don't know

267

if that's like and I wish I actually did fight more to somebody to listen to my story

268

because multiple times social workers did go into the house

269

and every time they'll ask me

270

if there was something wrong I would just say no

271

so I wish

272

that the younger version of me just said no some something

273

is wrong i wish like i had a stronger voice at the time

274

and i do understand that i was a child but i do wish that i did say something was wrong

275

so i was 17 or 18

276

when i was put into as a residential um unit for kids in care

277

but i when i left i was 18 okay

278

so you said you you had like a younger sibling yes

279

since they lost the custody of you did they lost the custody of the younger ones also yes

280

so they lost the custody of the younger two

281

but then my mom had another baby and she got to keep

282

that child so but everybody else they lost custody of

283

but my siblings still see my parents i'm the only one that has no contact

284

so what do you feel was taken away from you during

285

that time i definitely my childhood i think

286

that my child has definitely been taken away i don't think i've ever gone a childhood at all

287

and i And I think as well, even sometimes peace of mind, I feel like my head is always racing and I carried

288

so much guilt because I feel like so many children suffered because I didn't see anything sooner.

289

So I do feel the guilt of that if I'm being honest.

290

But yeah, I think that it's just knowing

291

that I would never have anything good to say about my childhood because I didn't get a childhood at all.

292

It's something that's really sad for me.

293

So when I was 19 I ended up being homeless, so I remember I had all my stuff in a black sack

294

and I had nowhere to go

295

and I was calling all of my friends to be like can I stay with you

296

and bear in mind at the time I was still doing my Leaving Cert

297

which is like your high school degree so I was still doing

298

that and one of my friends said oh you can come

299

and stay with me

300

so I went to go stay with her I think I had like 10 pounds in my bank account

301

that was supposed to last me for a month

302

and I just remember sleeping there

303

and thinking this life is just not what I thought it would be

304

so I was actually couch surfing for like nearly a year with my friends

305

while I was also traveling for an hour to try

306

and go into uni because I had actually failed uni

307

so I couldn't I didn't have the grades to go to university

308

so I couldn't work because I didn't have any grades I had no skills

309

and I had nowhere to stay

310

so I had to kind of like figure it out a little bit

311

so I worked I walked into like a charity shop

312

and I asked him I was like would you give me a job

313

if I work for free would you give me

314

so I can learn skills basically so Concern agreed to give me a volunteer job

315

and I worked there for like four months

316

and then I applied for PLC

317

so PLC is like a college you can apply for

318

if you don't have the right amount of grades or

319

if you just want to do something else before you go to university

320

so I applied for there while I was also working in the shop

321

and then I got in so I did

322

that to get me into university

323

and then I went to university then the next year yeah

324

so when I got into uni I received a scholarship it was a three-year scholarship for every year

325

that I was in university and it was like a lot of money

326

and I just wanted the scholarship just to prove to myself

327

that I could get it

328

but I really wanted to use the money to tackle an issue

329

so I started Mindgap Ireland which was a social project

330

that collects anonymous stories and I was the first in Ireland to do

331

that and then what I would do was I would get people to reach out they would share their stories

332

and then we would pay for them to get therapy

333

because at the time you could be in the waiting list for like five years the list was really long

334

so I would pay for it so they could go

335

and get therapy and we pay for like six sessions for each person

336

and we were doing that I did that for like three to four years

337

and then I also did sponsorship for young girls to gain education

338

so it's called sponsor a girl and I did

339

that for a year where I sponsored two

340

or three children to go again education

341

so they don't become child brides as well

342

and that's basically what we do we collect anonymous stories we've collected over 10k anonymous stories in seven years

343

and every single story we collect is from a non-reporter

344

and we're turning non-reporters into reporters into statistics

345

and what we found out of

346

that 10k 80% were under the age of 16 as young as five years old

347

when they experienced the sexual violence and we were the first point of contact to ever share their story.

348

Even when I came to Ireland the amount of times

349

that I was told that my parents told me

350

that they would kill me or they would send me back to Nigeria if I ever told anybody

351

even

352

when I went to the foster care the amount of times

353

the government in Ireland have tried to keep my story a

354

secret has been insane like they've tried to silence me

355

so many times in Ireland because my story looks really bad

356

because they have to explain how they wrote a letter to

357

my parents allowing for their daughter to come into the country

358

so I have a government letter that says

359

that I can come into the country but my sister wasn't their child

360

so how was she allowed in the country

361

and why were they paid off nobody checked the airport to

362

see how we got into the country in the first place

363

and then as well the amount of social workers

364

that came into the house multiple times nobody did anything

365

so i think it holds them accountable

366

and they don't want to be held accountable i've written letters to the government

367

and the government actually wrote back to me i met up with them

368

and they said to me trafficking is not popular in ireland only three percent of children get trafficked

369

and that's what they said to me when i told them my story

370

and then they never spoke to me again i ran to other governments where i have text messages messages

371

and they literally don't even reply they don't say anything they don't take it seriously

372

or they don't take it seriously

373

because at the end of the day they see it as

374

an african issue not an irish issue even though i've told

375

them the amount of children like i'll give an example the

376

time i lived with my parents i can generally say i

377

watched at least at least in a month 50 children at those parties get trafficked

378

and I was there for five years and all African children because nobody cares about the African children.

379

If it was a group of white children from Ireland

380

that this was happening to there would be an uproar about

381

it they'd be like well why is their Irish children going missing

382

and nobody's talking about them but

383

when it's black children from Africa it seemed more like well

384

send them back to their country is not a problem here even before it came out in public

385

and they do not care and the people that I've told it to is like the minister for children

386

the minister of justice and the people

387

that should care don't like I was angry

388

because it was kind of like how dare you try to tell me

389

that this is not a problem because if people were to be

390

if people were here watching you talk like this you wouldn't say any of these things it's

391

because we're one-to-one and nothing's recorded that you don't think it's a problem

392

and it was obviously the guy

393

that I met up with was a man he was the

394

it was for the minister of i think justice at the time

395

which was a woman she didn't even meet up with me

396

because it wasn't a big enough problem for her

397

but then the next day i seen her posting about um

398

advocating for children of sexual abuse even though she literally looked at my letter

399

and said i'm not going to meet up with you

400

but then the guy

401

that she sent to meet up with me literally was on

402

the phone call says to me this is not a problem From all what you told me, what hurt you the most?

403

I think for me, it's definitely how much of my story they've made invisible.

404

It's literally like I don't exist.

405

So like my government, my, I'm sorry, documents are completely fake.

406

Where I'm born is not, I wasn't even born in Nigeria.

407

But my passport says, my document says Nigeria, my birth certificate is completely fake

408

so everything about me is fake everything about my sister is fake

409

and it's like we don't exist if you were to look at the government

410

and history of us we literally it's like we literally don't exist our story doesn't exist

411

but that's the way they've made it into the system so

412

when we come out we tell our stories we're literally invisible people that don't exist

413

i think for me i think it's a government issue at the time where the government knew

414

that this was a problem in the airports

415

and it was a problem in Ireland but I think that

416

if they had said

417

that this is actually happening in Ireland they would look like

418

another way everybody says traffic only happens in developing countries well

419

then they would have to say well no that's not the case it's happening here

420

so I think

421

that it's a government issue with them allowing children to be

422

trafficked into their country that's the problem do you think it's still happening yes I know it's still happening

423

because when i was in foster care i had just left there was actually a child

424

that i seen that it was happening to

425

because i actually spoke to her and i wrote to my social worker

426

and asked her to visit the house and she didn't and then that child went missing next day

427

and your dad is how what is he doing now he's

428

a taxi driver they i got no justice for what happened to me

429

because it doesn't that's the way it happens in ireland like

430

if you get pointed care your parents just go roaming free

431

they can have more children they get to just work and nothing happens

432

yeah i think like for me is knowing that i would never get

433

that closure i would never get

434

that justice at all i never even get to know who i really am

435

because right now i don't know who i really am i think for me it makes me angry knowing

436

that they're roaming around free and they just get to live their life

437

but at the same time i feel like i just had to let go of it

438

because i'm never never going to get that answer like i'm just not

439

and because i was so young when it happened as well i've had

440

so many years of having to deal with it

441

that i feel like it's built a lot of strength in

442

me to be able to just move on without the closure

443

like i think this is a hard one for people to understand

444

but i think i would say to her like genuinely like i'm generally

445

so sorry that she had to go through that as a child

446

because i feel like people don't understand what it's like

447

until you go through it like I think it's

448

so sometimes easy to see somebody as this villain

449

and I see what the things that she's done wrong but

450

when you're brought up in that culture it's very normal like it really is

451

and I just feel so sorry for her that nobody helped her

452

and now she's turned into the villain of her own story

453

I think for me it's very scary to tell somebody when something's happening, especially when you're young and somebody's threatening you your life.

454

But it's so important that you speak up for yourself

455

or tell a trusted person because it's the only thing that will free you from that situation.

456

And I wish I did say something earlier.

457

So I would say to anybody that is still a victim now to tell somebody

458

if they can what is happening or try to get their hands on the phone, anything at all to try to get out of that situation that they're in.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?

שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
