Residents of Asaba, the Delta capital, have decried
the increase in commercial sex activities in the city,
in spite of the warning by health officials on the
consequences of the vice.
The residents expressed their concerns about the
high rate of the menace in separate interviews with
the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Asaba on
Sunday.
They advised the women involved in the act to have
a change of heart considering the health, religious
and other consequences of prostitution and called
for appropriate measures to curb the trend.
One of the residents, Mr Nnamdi Nkenor, told NAN
that commercial sex workers often lurked around
Texas Plaza and Stephen Keshi Stadium, both
located along the popular Nnebisi Road at night,
looking for patronage. Nkenor reminded the women, who he said were in
their teens, and some not above 35 years, that they
were prone to contracting and spreading HIV and
AIDs and other sexually-transmitted diseases.
He said also that such women could easily fall
victims of ritual killing that had become rampant in
the society.
“Times are hard but these girls have forgotten the
consequences of what they are indulging in. Apart
from the health implications, some of them could
be used for rituals.’’
He called on the appropriate authorities to check
the menace as was done in 2014, advising that
such measures should be sustained.
On his part, Mr Emmanuel Okpara, said that the sex
workers were also found around Ibusa Road
junction, Coker Junction, Jesus Saves Road and
other strategic areas in the city.
“These women of easy virtues have thrown caution
to the wind in spite of the sensitisation on the
dreaded HIV and AIDS.
“Some of them can get missing and their
colleagues will just think that they have simply
relocated to other places.
“Prostitution is wrong; it is against Christianity and
parents should bring up their children to be
responsible members of the society,” Okpara said.
He also called on government to provide jobs for
the youths, saying that the high rate of the vice and
others was largely due to unemployment. (NAN) http://www.herald.ng/residents-decry-increasing-rate-prostitution-asaba/
