“I was having almost Ghc 1,000 on my Mobile Money so they sent the SIM card to Ashtown to  a disable who was able to withdrew the money and left only Ghc 2 and even changed my pin code I got good Samaritans who send me to a clinic at Dichemso but they couldn’t do anything so I walked to the road side and met someone who speaks Hausa and in the cause of explaining the situation the Police with Okada came and took me to Manhyia but they referred me to the big hospital” Cherish added.

According to other accounts, the victim, Ruth, is a university student on vacation in Nigeria who has been brought to Ghana by the assailant, Bella, to indulge in the illicit sex trade in order to raise some money to cushion her when school resumes.

Prior to the ruling as required by law on women, a pregnancy test carried on Yakubu proved negative. She is to be deported after serving her five-year sentence.
