A Star Ghana Foundation research has unveiled that men use Indomie, mobile money and social media to lure many young teenage girls into having sex with them, some of which end up in pregnancies.

According to the study, men lure the girls with Indomie and mobile money.

Star Ghana Foundation made the findings known in Tamale, Northern Region, at a national dialogue on sexual and gender-based violence in a COVID-19 pandemic: prevalence, drivers and response measures.

The dialogue, put together by Star Ghana Foundation in collaboration with Songtaba, was aimed at identifying, sharing and suggesting solutions to the continuous vulnerability of women in the country.

The maltreatment of women suspected to be witches featured prominently in the discussions.

It also emerged that a lot of young girls got pregnant during the heady days of the COVID-19 pandemic.
