Ogun moves to crack down on prostitution at stadiums by Whizee(m) : 11:40 am |
Festus Abu The Ogun State Government has moved to crack down on prostitution at the stadiums owned by the state. The development comes on the heels of a report by Saturday PUNCH that the MKO Abiola Stadium in Abeokuta had been converted into a sex hotspot. Fun-seekers, according to the report, throng the stadium, particularly on Friday nights,   to wind down. Teenage prostitutes are said to have taken advantage of the development to do brisk trade, with men paying between N500 and N1,000 for quickies in a dark corner in the complex. However, the state government has decided it was time to call a halt to the occurrence and avoid further embarrassment by coming down hard on sex trade at  the MKO, Ijebu Ode, Sagamu and Ilaro stadiums. And the Ministry of Youth and Sports has also announced that it had joined forces with the Ministry of Women’s Affairs and Social Development to fight prostitution in the state. Spokesman for the sports ministry Akinbobola Adeniyi said the police and National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons are also involved in the fight against prostitution in the state. He said the state government on Friday inaugurated an eight-man committee “with the mandate to eradicate the menaceâ€. According to him, the committee is headed by the sports commissioner Afolabi Afuape, with women’s affairs commissioner Mrs. Abiola Kufile playing a major role. “The ministry has always been against prostitution across the state, especially within its four stadiums,†Afuape was quoted as saying in a statement by Adeniyi. “The committee swung into action by sensitising shop owners and underage girls at the MKO Abiola Stadium. Our plans is that anybody arrested after the sensitisation would be enrolled for  programmes that will add value to their life.†On her part, Kufile said the state government was determined to wage war against prostitution in the state.
