An emotional Tiwa took to Instagram to share photos from her experience writing, "Even though I was supposed to give these beautiful young ladies words of encouragement I ended up being more inspired by them. They said they didn't want to be seen as victims but as conquerors because the fact that they are still alive proves that God is not done with them yet. This was such a powerful moment to witness  #stopchildtrafficking #hillbrow #southafrica #thehousegroup #homeaffairs #orphanageafrica."

The House Group is an organization with several shelters and programs aimed at retrieving and rehabilitating female victims of child trafficking and sexual exploitation.
