A popular sex worker in Ashaiman Tutu-line known only as Maame Serwaa was stabbed to death in the early hours of Wednesday 29th June 2011 at Ashaiman Tsinagbe area. Narrating the incident to this reporter, the co-sex workers at the biggest sex hub in Ashaiman described the tragedy as barbaric and first in the history of Ashaiman.

According to an eye witness, a young man in his early twenties visited the late Maame Serwaa Tuesday night at 12 am for sex. After few hours the co-workers said they heard a strong argument ensuing between Maame Serwaa and the young man over payment terms but just a few moments later they heard Serwaa screaming she has been stabbed by the young man and trying to get hold of the guy when she fell and collapsed in cold blood.

The other sex workers claimed they gave the man a hot chase but the nature of the outline of scattered buildings within the sex hub confines aided the guy to escape.

They revealed that the said Serwaa’s boyfriend who comes to sleep with her after working hours (12 am) was called but to only come and meet her lovely sex diva lying in a pool of blood. She was rushed to Tema General Hospital where she was pronounced dead on arrival.

The assemblyman for the Tsinagbe Electoral Area, Hon. Moses Atterh Osabutey, confirmed the story of the tragic death of Maame Serwaa who he said was known to have been practicing the sex trade in the Ashaiman Tutu-line for some years now.

The Ashaiman District Police Commander ACP Peter Kobina has also confirmed the story and added that the Ashaiman Police are seriously investigating the crime to apprehend the culprit. The said boyfriend whose name has been withheld, has since been arrested and is now helping the Ashaiman police in their investigations.

The Ashaiman sex hub popularly known as ‘TUTU-LINE’ which is located just behind the Ashaiman Police station is the biggest sex hub in the Ashaiman area operating for so many years now. The only activity that goes on there is the sex trade in the naked eyes of all state authorities.

But this should be a wake up call for the state authorities to once again look into the activities of these illegal sex workers across Ghana especially in Ashaiman.

Her body has since been deposited at the Tema General Hospital.
