The Northwest Regional Capital, Bamenda is in a state of panic, after
some professional sex workers openly confessed of having infected many
pastors, drivers, police and gendarmerie officers with the virus.

The stunning confessions were made recently at the Adeh Metal
neighbourhood in Mankon, Bamenda, during a workshop that was organised
for youths by an international human rights organisation that
champions the fight against gender-based violence in Cameroon and
beyond. The one day seminar was organised under theme: "Training and
Engaging Adolescents Against New HIV Infections and Surviving the
Infection".

In a confession in front of over 100 youths, a 30-year-old lady, whose
name has been withheld for professional reasons and for fear of
stigmatisation said; "When some of us discovered that we were
contaminated more than 10 years back, we joined the team of infected
prostitutes.

Our target groups were pastors, forces of law and order and drivers,
who we identified as our faithful and regular sex partners because
they pay very high, but they are very impatient and rough during the
exercise.

Most of them prefer body-to-body or flesh-to-flesh without a condom.
This act has a higher price tag ranging from FCFA 5,000, 10,000 or
15,000, depending on how beautiful you are.



We have also noticed that drunken men, especially the forces of law
and order, pay without hesitating to avoid public disgrace and those
who are married plead for us to conceal their identities whenever and
wherever we meet them." According to the prostitutes, their anger
stems from the fact that those who contaminated them can never be
traced. As such, any victim who wants to pay very high and prefers to
go "live" must have his share of the virus.

After the confession, the 30-year-old wept profusely and pleaded for
forgiveness. The lady said "I am now a new woman because I'm no longer
in "active service" in the oldest profession. "I left the club of
those who are infecting these men and started taking my
anti-retroviral drugs two years ago. I am warning young people not to
fall prey to sugar mummy or daddy. Know your HIV status before you
engage in any sex activity or abstain until you and your partner are
tested negative," she averred.

Meanwhile, officials from the international NGO Women In Action
against Gender Violence, WA-Cameroon, revealed that there are seven
new HIV infections in every minute in Cameroon. According to them,
their organisation is fighting hard to reduce the HIV/AIDS prevalence
rate by 2030. The workshop was sponsored by Positive Action for
Children Fund, PACF.
