Takoradi girls strip for cash The discovery of oil in large quantities in the
Western Region has undoubtedly turned the once
quire town city of Sekondi-Takoradi into a buoyant
town with the influx of people from all walks of
life into the metropolis.
The increase in population in the now ‘oil
city’ has resulted in increase economic
activities especially in the areas of trade and
tourism whilst landlords have also increased their
rents to meet the high demand.
However, undercover investigations conducted by
the P&P in the ‘oil city’ over the last few
weeks have revealed that one area which is
thriving as a result of the booming oil trade, is
that of prostitution. Indeed, since the discovery
of the black gold, several prostitutes from other
parts of the country and even neighboring
countries like Cote D’Ivoire, Togo and Nigeria
have all relocated to Takoradi and its environs
for business.
Shockingly, some young female residents of the
town who are not ‘professional prostitutes’
but who also wants to grab a piece of the pie
(booming sex trade) have also devised ways and
means of attracting the oil merchants and oil
company workers who throng the city every now and
then.
Our investigations revealed that such girls work
through the ‘sex agents’ who collect the
ladies’ nude and semi nude photographs and
deposit them at well known hotels to solicit for
clients. Such pictures are normally given to the
hotel’s front desk executives who in turn make
them (pictures) available to guest for selection
and subsequent bookings.
Once a male guest has made the choice, the sex
agent is contacted for the necessary arrangements
and the girls are then provided at a fee. Indeed,
such agents according to our sources take a
commission from the client as well as the girl.
We gathered that these ladies who are commonly
referred to as ‘executive ladies’ because they
work underground and do not stand by the road side
to solicit for clients charge between GH¢ 80 and
150 per night depending on the beauty of the lady
and the pocket of the client. Such ‘executive
ladies’ normally operate around the Takoradi
Beach Road area which boast of several first class
hotels Source - Peacefmonline
