Some women living in
Assin Fosu in Ghana's Central region are pleading for clemency for male prison
inmates in the region. The motive for the appeal, the woman revealed
is to
solve the woman to man ratio in the region.
Some of the women in
an interview on Adom News revealed that majority of them are single and are
being pressured by their families to marry before the end of the year.
The situation, some
ladies said, has become dire causing them to sleep with married men.
Those who are single
mom's also said the few men in the area have shirked their responsibilities due
to the keen competition among the women in the area.
The only option
left, the women stressed is for President Akufo-Addo to release the male
prisoners for them to marry.
“The men in the
prison are more than the men in our town so please release them for us. We will
enjoy with them and have a nice family together and so we beg Nana Addo to
pardon the prisoners in our region because our town is dying,” they bemoaned.
But men in the town
are rather blaming the women for not being reasonable with their demands.
“The women in our
town are not reasonable in their demand, they are not serious, all they know is
to spend money and walk away that is why they need prisoners to marry,” one
angry man said.
