The undercover investigations indicate that prostitution is booming in the Sunyani Municipality, especially at Peace Guest House, located at a place called Area 3 in Sunyani. According to the prostitutes, men have deserted them with the explanation that the economic crunch has greatly affected their purchasing power and so they can no longer pay the usual charges for the services of prostitutes. One of the prostitutes, who only gave her name as Ama, said that they charge their customers GHC20 for a short time.
Amanda, a Cameroonian prostitute based in Sunyani, said business used to be good but the tide has changed in recent times. Barbara from Berekum said she makes an average of GHC a night. Ladies of different ages, including teenagers are engaged in this illegal trade. The prostitutes are always lurking around the drinking spot of Peace Guest House waiting for their customers.
After bargaining with their customers and settling on an amount, the prostitutes collect the money and pay GHC5 from it to the receptionist before they move to the room to have bouts of sex. Though the prostitutes work throughout the week, Fridays and Saturdays are said to be their busy days.
Their business starts from 9am, with men of different ages patronising the services of these prostitutes. Home News Social Comments 1. Share on Facebook Share on Twitter. More Stories.
