The Ghanaian media has warned of a secret gay porn industry that’s allegedly targeting university students and unemployed youth.

StarrFMonline.com claims that it has uncovered “a festering underground gay porn movie industry in Ghana.”

It said that it is “mostly male university students and jobless young men [who] are preyed upon by foreign producers and their Ghanaian collaborators.”

The site claims to have copies of 10 explicit gay porn movies, in which it has identified University of Ghana students.

The alleged producers, Black4Blacks Productions, are said to “lure desperate university students into the gay porn movie industry with wads of cash” and to also “use illiterate young men.”

The films are apparently shot in Accra and in the Ivorian capital Abidjan for an online audience.

The producers allegedly pay their cast less than half of the Gh¢4,500 (about R15,212) initially offered. They also promise not to distribute the videos in Africa.

The site reported that an investigation has been launched by the Bureau of National Investigations. Should the reports prove to be true, the students involved could be jailed for up to three years if convicted of having gay sex.

“People are aware that the society frowns upon it…they have engaged in an illegality and they must be arrested,” said lawyer Gary Nimako.

If identified, the students could also face possible mob “justice”. There have been a number of recent attacks and murders in Ghana over the victims’ real or perceived sexual orientation or gender identity.
