So much for Ghana being one of the “safest” nations in Africa.
Of course, these reports won’t dissuade white women from continuing to travel there in droves.
“To make a difference.”
BBC:
Two men have been charged with a series of offences including rape after a group of British schoolgirls was attacked at gunpoint in Ghana.
A number of armed men entered accommodation where the pupils and their teachers were staying during a school trip to the west African country in December.
Police said a Ghanaian security guard was shot and the female victims were “subjected to serious sexual assaults”.
Some of their possessions were stolen.
Police in the UK said Ishmael Akyene, 34, a Ghanaian national, had been charged by Ghanaian police with 14 counts of robbery, one count of rape, one count of conspiracy to rape, one count of possession of a firearm, one count of possession of an instrument intended for unlawful entry and one count of money laundering.
A second man, Daniel Akpan, 29, a Nigerian national, has been charged with 14 counts of robbery, two counts of rape, one count of conspiracy to rape, one count of possession of a firearm, one count of possession of an instrument intended for unlawful entry and one count of money laundering.
Both men have been remanded in custody.
A search is continuing to find a third suspect.
Just imagine the state of the British. Parents signing papers to let their teenage daughters go to Africa for a field trip.
Why even?
