PROSTITUTION

    Many girls in Kenya, especially the slums are turning to prostitution after lack of employment opportunities. They fail to be employed due to lack of qualifications and required skills. Most girls at the age of 17-30 endanger their lives and become prostitutes as a way of earning a living. They hang around at night in many towns looking for men who are interesting in them.

    Most of the girls ends up having aids, STIs or they may be raped and eventually die. The issue of prostitution has become a major challenge to the Kenyan government raising concerns whether it should be illegalised or legalised.
