Child Prostitution in Kenya

Post by Goljano Lion »

Hoteliers want a new law enacted to allow State inspectors to access private villas and homes to fight child prostitution. The Kenya Association of Hotelkeepers and Caterers (KAHC) claimed there was a possibility of child sex abusers fleeing from mainstream hotels and finding new hideouts in the villas, small lodgings and private homes. KAHC Coast branch chairman, Mr Mohamed Hersi, also urged the government to bar 29 listed international child sex abusers from entering the country. Their names and descriptions are on the internet, he said. A recent report by United Nations International Child Education Foundation reveals that today, major hotels account for four per cent of child sex tourism while private villas and homes account for 12 per cent

A campaign has been launched to ensure that hotels in Coast Province sign a code of conduct to protect children from commercial sexual exploitation.

TRAINING WORKERS - The code calls for ethical policy regarding commercial sexual exploitation of children from hotels and for them to train their employees on how to prevent child sexual exploitation by tourists.

The campaign follows the release of a report by UNICEF in December, which revealed that child prostitution at the coast had hit alarming levels.

A report undertaken by the Kenyan Government and the UN children's fund, UNICEF, studied the sexual exploitation of children on the Kenyan coast. It found that 30 per cent of girls aged between 12 and 18 are selling sex for cash at resorts and that most of their clients are European men

She was a teenage orphan living on the streets of Nairobi when a man approached her and promised her work in the United Kingdom. He told her she would be working as a house girl.

True to his word, her "savior" brought her into the U.K. -- but instead of placing her with a family the man took her to a brothel, where she was systematically raped, beaten, and forced to work as a prostitute.

Three months later, when the 16-year-old Kenyan girl became pregnant, she was forced to continue sleeping with a succession of men until she was almost due to give birth. The heavily pregnant teenager was then removed from the brothel, driven out of the town where she had been held, and dumped many miles away on the streets of Sheffield

I saw a documentary on this recently. They recruit these little girls from the countryside in villages near Malindi and Mombasa and then bring them to the cities to sell them to their clients. The strange part is that a lot of these young girls are sold by their parents to these prostitution rings.

Participants said children are lured into having sex with tourists along the beach. They claimed the children are also forced to take nude photographs, which the tourists later use to produce pornographic material in their countries. High poverty level and pressure from parents were the main reasons given for the abuse.

The point I was trying to make was that they're not the only ones sexually exploiting minors. You can't throw a rock in the third world without hitting at least two men who are married to young girls. Two old men...
