What kind of article is this, investigative or expository?

uche87:
Akudo earns a salary of less than N85,000 in a month at a struggling company in Lagos. The sole proprietor of the medium-scale enterprise had considered closing down the firm times without number due to its slow pace of growth. For years, he has refused to increase the salary of the busty young lady with light skin and alluring curves which she never fails to show off in tight clothes. She also has no chance of being promoted in any way. The 24-year-old doesn't care about her career. Her job as a front desk officer is just a front for another 'business' which brings the cash. She runs a company within her company and that firm is between her legs. Most of her 'customers' are married men and young internet fraudsters popularly called 'Yahoo Boys'.

She has an active account on Instagram and this is like her own link to the world. It's difficult to understand what she is up to. You need to look closely. Akudo uploads pictures like every normal girl. She makes sure a large chunk of her cleavage is showing, her hips are also exposed out of her short dresses and she poses in a way that her backside is also captured. The pictures are laced with motivational quotes, bible verses and appreciation of God. These are regular innocent pictures we see every day on social media but there is more to them. They are posted as baits with intentions. The 'goods and services' are not conspicuously displayed in the black market but the buyers understand the signals. Once they see them, they make a move and a moneyed deal is sealed like a capital project. Not all ladies are as discreet as Akudo. Others post provocative pictures, twerk in videos, flaunt tattoos, touch on x-rated topics just to tell the outside world they are strictly open for business.

Back to Akudo, she simply goes to popular social media pages on Instagram to make harmless comments. Some might be lengthy, others might be so brief. These comments are for the visibility of her page. Interested buyers who are mostly male folks scroll through the comment section of popular social media pages not just to gauge the opinions of people about issues and incidents, but to look out for people like Akudo. After checking her profile and being satisfied with her pictures, he respectfully sends a message. Akudo initially acts decent but shows her true colours as time goes on. It might be a one-off deal in which they meet at a hotel and the man pays a sizeable amount of money and sex is transacted or a contract in which he becomes the 'friend' Akudo. He constantly helps her out with common material needs while they regularly meet for sex when the need arises. Akudo in turn calls the man her 'best friend, mentor, uncle, zaddy or ex'. When you hear these terms, you need to look deeper.

The business has been fine for Akudo. She never touches her monthly salaries. She drives a 2010 model of Lexus ES 350 saloon car which arrived during the coronavirus pandemic when millions of Nigerians lost their jobs and others took pay-cuts. She attributes her 'success' to God all the time.

Akudo is not alone. Life is tough in Nigeria and maybe tougher in Lagos. It is easy to become homeless because the well-paying jobs are scarce and the house rents keep going up like it wants to explore the heavens. Since Nigerians never share their pains but gains, so that they wouldn't be mocked or regarded as unfortunate in life, the young ladies secretly start to use what they have to get what they want.

How do you explain a situation whereby a lady who earns just N50,000 per month, lives on the mainland and works on the Island, and then easily affords the latest iPhone with other ostentatious belongings. She goes on social media every weekend to share photos of her visitations to swanky restaurants, eating exotic meals and cooling off at 5-Star hotels. These 'online marketers' are always in a hurry to show the world they are 'balling'. It's like they need to convince an imaginary competitor out there.

For ladies who want a bigger chunk of the monies that circulate in the untaxed sex industry in Lagos, they crave for more visibility. They join the entertainment industry where they go into modelling, presentations, reality shows and mostly acting. The big boys stalk the entertainment industry, which is like the 'more you look, the less you see'. In the entertainment industry, you need to look successful to gather momentum. Since you can't engage in internet scam like the male players, you will crawl to the politicians, business tycoons, drug barons and others making easy money, to shore up your bank accounts, so that you can look successful and advance your career.

Since the outbreak of coronavirus globally, the local film industry has taken a hit. It has almost closed down. But this setback hasn't stopped the glory of actresses who have no known businesses or reasonable endorsement deals. They have been flaunting new SUVs on social media as well as newly-acquired houses. The story is the opposite for the men who most times survive on the benevolence of well-meaning Nigerians. Who have the male actors offended? Are they not serving a 'living God'?

Most of the most talented and hard-working male actors only grab the headlines when they engage in crowdfunding to offset medical bills.

With the advancement in information technology and widespread usage of smartphones, social networks have been springing up aside from the major ones like Instagram, Facebook and Twitter. Most young ladies discreetly join them to open business profiles where they transact sex at affordable rates. Most of them are just normal people that can never be suspected to be indulging in such. All you need to simply do is chat them up, agree on a fee, she takes your address and comes down easily using one of the ride-hailing companies. Investigations show sex services are charged according to durations and add-ons. You either go for 'short time' which is a round or two within two hours or so. Those with enough cash opt for 'long rest' which is fixed over the night with about three rounds or more guaranteed, according to the gas in your tank.

The story of this industry can't be told in one article. It is far bigger than imagined. The players are invisible. It is condemned by both participants. Nobody likes to admit it exists but they will always run there for help when the body calls for it. It's like a hospital with numerous patients in emergency wards. It's a multi-billion naira industry without exaggerations. It has changed lives. Many have bought cars, careers, houses, established businesses through this industry. It is called the oldest profession in the world. It is not new, just that the trends are changing. Every young lady seems to be eyeing the sector with a plan to join and support herself. Greed, peer pressure and economic hardship drive the informal industry.

How much is Nigeria's debt again? N31 trillion I guess. If President Muhammadu Buhari decides to track the transactions in the industry with the sole aim to collect taxes, he will repay Nigeria's debts under a period of 16 months, and I mean it.

Now this is what I call a blog.

Good job!

best piece I've read this week

HIV epidermic brewing.......

Akudo uploads pictures like every normal girl. She makes sure a large chunk of her cleavage is showing, her hips are also exposed out of her short dresses and she poses in a way that her backside is also captured. The pictures are laced with motivational quotes, bible verses and appreciation of God.

Chinekeeee!!

sweetrace:
Prostitutes can not survive without patrons. I honestly don’t understand why prostitutes are castigated while their patrons are seen as scratching an itch. To stop any vice anywhere in the world, is to takeaway its patronage. Men should stop patronizing prostitutes and they will go out of business.

If you think men are the only one's patronising prostitutes, you must be living in a lala land.

We now have older Madams doing it.

Don't believe go to Instagram, twitter.

tundchip2:
They'd be like: why should i suffer when i have a pussy.

niggas too be like: how can i starve when my Niggas are doing it large?

Males are doing fraud, scams, drug dealing, bunkering etc. And the females too, are doing their thing.

Nobody wan suffer for this life.

Person wey quote "use what you have to get what you need" know wetin he dey talk about.

Nice article tho.

It is really pathetic!

OpinionCounts:
What shocks me is that we have even some girls from Rich and average families in this, though most are from not very well to do background, but a lot of the girls in this industry are very pretty yet very empty upstairs, infact some of them are not even literate but can compete in beauty with a miss world

Some of them sha will later make it financially and try to get some mental upgrade in learning and in civilization.

Poverty is a big factor....but believe me, some of these girls do not even come from very poor families, they come from the normal hand to mouth kind of family that just needs patience , hardwork, determination and the God factor to finally live an atleast average life(is this not also the case for most Nigerians?), But they decided to go the fast lane. Some are just out of pure laziness (desire to make quick money without working for it), primitive ignorance ( the ngbeke's that are trying to catch up to show they can also shine and be like other big girls), peer influence (bad company/ friends), illiteracy (when you know you are dumb and can't compete with others out there for decent jobs), lack of exposure (especially early exposure to a bigger ideal, a bigger truth and life reality...when u have been living in the rocks a mud house will look like 5 star hotel to you, so you can be easily deceived into selling your body to people, not knowing that you are belittling and destroying yourself, not knowing that life is way bigger than that), etc etc

You just HIT THE NAIL directly on the head...excellent write-up

Jaqenhghar:
Most of these codes are old school sef. These chics that use social media, they pretend to pick up hobbies that they know guys are interested in eg gaming. You see a sexy gaming chic flaunting her stuff and always talking of the latest games. Of course its the nerdy and the affluent that can afford those games. Some pretend to love basketball with hopes of trapping one ball player

Or act like a car enthusiast. This one works every single time.

This was such a beautiful article, well written and throughly investigative.

I love how the writer succinctly captures what almost every real G has experienced with ladies (the coded hoes and the not-so coded ones), lol.

These days, almost every one of them is in the business of selling something directly or indirectly, it's just facts.

BLUELemon:
this is the most beautiful piece I have read this year. It's sweet to the eyes with good punctuation and free flowing touch

You got that right

pocohantas:


This is the part I find intriguing about runz girls (and closet yahoo boys). The fact that they make no effort to balance their obvious income and recurring expenditure. Men are not fools, no one is a fool. If you have a 100k job and you are driving a car, living in a furnished apartment, changing phones like pant, spotting luxury bags...etc. It isn’t really nuclear physics that you have a sponsor somewhere and some men won’t take you very seriously(not like they are ever serious sha).

Anyway, runz is so old school, sharp girls now do sponsors- okunrin meta (1 man with the ability of a thousand) . Go to the Island and you will see men that are ready to spend. Some girls deliberately move to the Island and go to choice places just to meet them and they are always ready to meet you too!!! It is like a thrill for them to just pick you up and rearrange your life. This one is not urgent 2k boys o. The interesting part is, they do not increase your mileage and damage the whole alignment of your pussy like U-27 boys. They are hardly ever around or less busy. Premium sucre papitos.

1. There is the illusion that magas, mugus and papitos will continue to pay.

2. A surce papito would not 'see' Bolanle talk more of 'engage for her services': Bolanle has to upgrade to Lucia which entails a lot of money and time. When papito sees Lucia, 'fear' would not let him 'price' her anyhow.

3. Surce papito has left survival mode and the feeling of 'power' that he can buy any high class girl he wants is orgasm enough so why should he break his waist? They would also rather 'exotic' styles to fulfill their depraved fantasties. And the fact that the Lucias are 'submissive' and 'feminine' make them pleasant companions.

5. There is a belief that money gotten from ill proceeds never build anything solid.

Problem starts when they foolishly decide to marry sucre papito E. G. Regina.

I guess these men fall into 'Alpha Bucks' which is uncharted territory for red pill.

after many nairalanf girls finiah reading this sermon on the mountain they will want to use what they have to hammer by thunder.

some don even run commit for house since coro start them never still hammer.


make una No go fall into ritualis trap o.No be every girl they Get luck every time.


hustle well shine ya eyes well we know life is hard no run mad tomorrow.

sign
raphy.
for all the hoe,LovePeddler and slut in the nation.

This is to remind 'Christians' that fornication is a sin

Poverty is not a factor for high scale prostitution or yahoo yahoo.

foolbuster:


The truth is the truth. This write-up is pure fact. Truth of the matter is that the Nigerian government have turned almost all of our women to prostitutes
Lalasticlala over to you.

that's true

kkins25:
i never understand why E dey pain men say women live comfortably with little effort.. keep hating on olosho, meanwhile your leaders dey get political advise from the same olosho una dey here dey bash!!!

Perhaps Oloshos should take Political Science as a compulsory course so they guide our leaders right.

Vivonose:
If only men can stop patronising

Ha!

Then you don't understand human nature.

DisLifeSha:
My prayer is for the male sex industry to be open too. Sugar mummy and sugar babes to fu ck

You better stick to yahoo yahoo.

An average woman would not pay for sex.

Rapsodee:
Nigerian economy has turned our girls to olosho and gold diggers, and our boys to Yahoo boys....God have mercy!

Not the economy.

It is their decision.

If it were the economy, they would the money for rent, fees, feeding, family etc. Not to buy latest shoes, bags, jewelry, cloths, cars etc.

No be Lie!!

Nice piece brotherman

Nigsrdumb:


Oga if i post the pictures of what i have seen , infact you won't marry any girl from Nigeria.

From those ajebos to the ghetto hood rats.

All the porn video maker's women
Italy madams women
Sex party organisers women
Lesbian party organisers women
Prostitution and massage parlours women

Younger generation will find marriage extremely difficult.

People wey dey raise kids for Lagos, shine your eye's.

I agree with the fact that marriage is in a degrading slope currently in Nigeria.

May we not do mistake carry women that will kill us in marriage o

They dun know warris happening...

The total number of young women in Nigeria between the ages of 18–40 that are not engaged in some form of sex merchandise (whether coded or uncoded), are not up to 3000 again... Total number o!!

Nigsrdumb:


It's not the economy, what happened was good girls allowed oloshos to run them over.

You need to go on Instagram and see how girls are recruiting girls into prostitution.

I almost cried when i saw a live Instagram video of a young pretty Igbo girl going into porn for the first time.

This was all orchestrated by another girl.

This girl could easily marry a rich man but prefer 10k to act porn

Rich man where?

The ones patroning the high end oloshos?

motionarena:
I said it before the Olosho pandemic has hit 100% in our country especially Lagos.

Must girls I know are slowly turning to Olosho.

Oloshos are running things in Lagos

And Abuja, portharcourt

lol...buying latest shoes, bags, jewelries and the likes are simply investments into their olosho ministry...better package, better clients...they will then use the little interest buy food and rent .

BreconHills:


Not true.

It's not the government that turns anyone to prostitution. Prostitution is a business like any other and an old one at that. The write up did not even include the entire ecosystem - landlords and madams that provide the real estate in exchange for weekly "rent", the " wears" sellers, online dating platforms, the recreational drug industry, doctors, ride hailing services, police protection, juju ( fake and real)etc, etc It's a huge industry bigger than several banks put together.

The returns are massive and the players range from agbo sellers all the way to "successful" entertainers and business people. It's inflation proof too because at the mid to high end, returns are dollarized.

No government needs to push anyone into a thriving industry. It's the poor bottom of the ladder prostitutes that spin that " I do it to feed the children/parents narrative. For the rest it's a clear eyed decision.

Gbam!

It is a whole ecosystem.
