Sex Is A ‘Tourism Booster’ – Abeiku Santana
Ghanaian radio and TV presenter, Abeiku Aggrey Santana talks about the various forms of tourism. He stressed the need to encourage and promote sex as a tourism booster.
Moreover, according to him, most tourists come to Ghana not only for the tourist sites, rich culture and history. Also, they come for our men and women.
“Sex tourism is not a promotion of promiscuity. What we are saying is, let’s have interracial marriage or relationships. When foreigners come let them like you as a man or woman and when that happens they will tend to continue the relationship with you”
Furthermore, he stated that even though Ghana has not legalized sex trade, there are people doing it. Therefore, it is about time the youth were educated about the advantages and looming opportunities in sex tourism. Also, he added that countries like Kenya, Gambia, Senegal educated their citizens to make themselves approachable and appealing to foreigners.
“There are a lot of foreigners who come here, they like us. However, they can’t say it and we also like them but we also do not tell them, our problem is with the approach”
Also, he reacted to issues on exploitation. The Kaya Tours CEO said those exploited were only because they lacked requisite education.
“People who have been exploited are those who have not been educated, if you are educated and you know what is at stake for you, you will not allow yourself to be exploited because you have an agenda and aim”
