Chairman of the Northern Regional Security Council (REGSEC) Salifu Saeed is pleading men within the Tamale Metropolis who have an insatiable desire for prostitutes to hold their fire in the meantime until the fight against the deadly coronavirus is succeeded.

“I am pleading with the young men we know that sometimes you want to satisfy your desires in way or the other. But at this crucial moment, everybody is hot in this country, is hot in this region. I am pleading people should fear the God, fear the almighty Allah, our Lord Jesus Christ and stop this prostitution”, he begged while speaking to the press covered by MyNewsGh.com.

According to him, the time is ripe for men who have unbridled libido to shelve their interest as the country is dangerous times and the possibility of such persons endangering the lives of their families is high.

“It is very dangerous because you will expose your families to dangers, you will expose so many people to dangers and this disease there is no drug to cure it. I am calling you to support me to deal with the situation”, Mr Sa-eed stressed.

The Minister earlier this week banned prostitution which is already outlawed within Tamale following the escape of a Guinean national who has tested positive for the deadly coronavirus.

A statement issued and signed by the Minister copied to MyNewsGh.com on Wednesday [April 1, 2020] reveal that the ban affects activities related to prostitution warning that anyone caught shall face the full rigours of the law.
