Single tourists and other backpacker-mass-tourists slipping into Ghana have resorted to preying on truant and delinquent kids idling on the beaches and streets by luring them with money, immigration abroad and other gizmos. This is the sordid byproduct of an increase in the international student educational tourist flood.
In some cases, parents have even condoned the involvement of their kids in gay pedophilia and child sex for money. Some of the hotel and lodging operations in Ghana are pimping for such tourist and using child sex tourism as a promotional tool for their businesses.
The tourism sector in Ghana, both public and private, do not seem to be doing much or taking the issue seriously and neither those agencies responsible for the protection of children. Moreover the international community should make some arrangements to put a stop to such nefariously disgusting activities.
