Their sexual risk behaviours included condomless sex with casual partners in the last sex episode (23.6%), multiple sex partners (11.5%) and engaging in commercial sex (8.4%), in the past year. Having HIV\/AIDS knowledge (adjusted odds ratio (AOR) 0.41, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.24\u20130.70) and using a condom at sexual debut (AOR 0.08, 95% CI 0.05\u20130.13) were factors associated with condomless sex with casual partners in the last sex episode. Males (AOR 3.03, 95% CI 1.96\u20134.69 and AOR 2.19, 95% CI 1.33\u20133.60), local workers (AOR 2.11, 95% CI 1.01\u20134.42 and AOR 3.42, 95% CI 1.63\u20137.21), being single (AOR 2.04, 95% CI 1.39\u20133.01 and AOR 2.49, 95% CI 1.61\u20133.87), having sexual debut aged &amp;lt;18\u00a0years (AOR 5.98, 95% CI 3.28\u201310.89 and AOR 3.34, 95% CI 1.74\u20136.39), and substance use (AOR 2.01, 95% CI 1.38\u20132.93 and AOR 4.43, 95% CI 2.85\u20136.87) were associated with both having multiple sex partners and engaging in commercial sex in the past year.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Sexual risk behaviours were prevalent despite most participants having basic HIV\/AIDS knowledge.
