Residents of Chapel Hill in Takoradi on Saturday November 3rd, 2018 woke up to a shocking news of the murder of a twenty -eight old Nigerian sex worker.

The deceased has been identified by the Takoradi police command as Edafe Ovoke Vera.

One of Vera’s friends who spoke to Takoradi based Empire FM on condition of anonymity disclosed that they were at the Vienna night club to ply their sex trade when a young man approached Vera to patronise her services but did not see her again till 4am when they arrived at their hotel to see Vera and the said client quarrelling.

She said she did not bother to check since it was a normal scene at the hotel to hear her colleagues having hot exchanges with their clients over charges.

She continued that it was in the morning that news went round that Vera has been stabbed to death by her unknown client.

Police personnel arrived at the Chapel Hill based hotel to see Vera dead in a pool of blood in the bathroom.

When asked if they will suspend their sex trade tonight following the murder of their friend the informant responded in the negative, saying the weekend is usually their peak business period.

Western Regional Police Public Relations Officer DSP Olivia Ewurabena Adiku who confirmed the story said the suspect who is now at large stabbed Vera in the stomach, throat and left thigh.

She was found naked in room 14 of the hotel.

DSP Adiku said investigations are underway to arrest the suspect.

Meanwhile the body has been deposited at the Effia-Nkwanta morgue for autopsy and preservation.
