41 Nigerian prostitutes, between the ages of 18 and 25 years, have been arrested by the Weija District Police Command led by Chief Inspector Diana Tei Eninful.

They were arrested around Choice, a place where several pubs operate at night.

Eninful said the police received several reports from residents in the area about the activities of the prostitutes, which have turned the vicinity into a haven for drug peddlers and armed robbers.

She said the prostitutes, sometimes intentionally hoot at, and accuse passers-by of refusing to pay them after allegedly having enjoyed their coital services, and, so, pounce on such innocent people with the help of their gangs of pimps – a situation she said has brought insecurity to the whole neighbourhood. ‬
