Sex workers downplaying value of hard work - OAP Lolo

Nigerian media personality, Omotunde Adebowale-David, aka Lolo 1, has accused sex workers of downplaying the value of hard work and legitimate businesses.

Speaking in a recent episode of the ‘Say My Piece’ podcast, Lolo 1 said the current trend of sex workers boldly opening up about their trade shows that there’s a sharp decline in morality in society.

She shared that she always advises women not to see their bodies as commodities.

She said, “If you can blatantly come out and say you are a sex worker, you asked someone for money, and I got it and bought a car… And when you told me she bought a house, she bought this, what do you think every other average person would look at?”

“They [sex workers] are downplaying the value of hard work. They are downplaying the value of sweating, of growing something, of doing legitimate work. I keep telling women in my circle that your body is not a shop. Maybe, I belong to a slowly dying generation.

“But for somebody to blatantly come out and say this is what I do for money, I’m beginning to rethink many things, okay, it [society] has lost its sense of shame. Then let’s just make it [prostitution] a legitimate thing.”
