Mlolongo sex workers trained in real service

Sex workers from Mlolongo and Mtito Andei may soon drop their trade to work in front office management, security and customer care desks. This is after they graduated from Athi River Secondary School after a three-week training in front office management, security and customer care services. The women are aged between 23 and 28 years. World Provision Centre (WPC), County Security Services and Security Group Africa who sponsored the training are targeting sex workers along the transport corridors. WPC says its is easy to reach the women in organised groups. Speaking to The Nairobian, WPC Director, Simon Ngiki said, ‘’When commercial sex workers are trained, they regain their self-esteem and in turn manage the spread HIV.”
