Cheaper than bread: Girls sell their bodies for Sh31 to survive crisis

Young girls in southern Africa are selling sex - sometimes for less than the cost of bread - to survive a hunger crisis ensnaring tens of millions, aid agencies said on Thursday.

In Angola, girls of 12 sell themselves for as little as 40 cents (Sh40) to feed their families as the south of the country faces its worst drought in four decades, World Vision said.
