Some sex workers in the Accra region of Ghana have announced an increase in their charges which they blamed on economic hardship.
The sex workers revealed that the increment in fuel prices coupled with general constraints have affected their work so badly that they had to increase their charges.
Their clients are now being charged between $50 and $300 for a brief session lasting between 15-20 minutes and as much as $300 for a full night.
JoyNews reported that the sex workers also pleaded with their clients to bear with them over the increase.
