A 17 year old commercial sex worker, Obaa Yaa has shared her plight engaging in sexual bouts with over ten (10) men each night just to survive.

The young girl who plies a sex trade around Old Fadama and Circle near the Railway line in Accra said she became a prostitute at age 16 because she was unable to cope with the family pressure when she was forced to get a job.

According to her, she traveled from North Volta to Accra to meet her friends where she was subsequently introduced into the prostitution profession.

“I started this sex business at the age of 16 years when I came to Accra to visit my close pals. They asked me if I will come along with them to where they were going to and I didn’t object to that.”

She told Berla Mundi on GHOne TV’s ‘Late Afternoon Show’ that the commercial sex work got more lucrative and she was unable to quit.

Disclosing how much she makes for a night with the over ten (10) men with different sized manhood, Obaa Yaa said “I get paid twenty Ghana cedis per man but after sleeping with the over 10 men each night I earned about GHc 150.00.”

“I sometimes feel the pain when I’m having sex with the over 10 men but there is nothing I can do about the pain, I just have to endure it because I need to make money for myself. I sometimes buy stuff with the money I earn from my night sex business and remit my mother as well.

“My mother didn’t know I’m a commercial sex worker. My mum got to know about my work through my uncles because of that she threatened to kill me if I come to the village.

“I’ve been advised to stop this sex business because I’m too young but because I need money, I can’t put a stop to it.”


According to Obaa Yaa, days that business is booming, she makes GHc200.00 for the night.

When asked if she is prepared to end her illegal sex business, she replied, “Yes I want to put a stop to this trade but I’ve no helper.”
