trafficked five girls from her country to Accra to engage in commercial sex
trade.

and was granted GH₵30,000.00 bail with two sureties, when she appeared before
the Kwabenya Circuit Court.
The court, presided over by Ms.

Confident Clement, Gennifer Okafor, Nora Pete and Sandra Daniel, were rounded
up together with 20 other suspected commercial sex workers in a police swoop on
November 15, at about 1930 hours.
A search conducted on them
uncovered both used and unused condoms and during police interrogation, they
mentioned Ebu as the person who brought them to Ghana.
They added that the accused
collected from them cash ranging from GH₵2,500.00
and GH₵3,500.00.
