African Heads of State failure to provide decent employment for their citizens becomes push and pull factor for school leavers and employment seekers to resort to international labour migration as means to survive and better life.

But due to challenges in visa acquisition, African citizens mostly depend on unethical recruitment agents or agencies as easy means to migrate to abroad for labour  market opportunities.

However, many recruitement agents or agencies especially unethical agents extort huge amount of money from potential migrants without fulfill their agreed terms of employment but rather dumping potential migrants in transit countries instead of destination or recipient countries. Many migrants who were able reached destination or recipient countries or host countries are deceived by some agents with different employment or non-existing employment upon their arrival.
