The Nollywood actress, Sonia Ogiri has advised prostitutes that are known as ‘oloshos’ on the danger involved in the business and that prostitution is not a profession to be proud of.
The actress advised those who engage in the act to desist from it adding that the stock in trade had no long-term value.
This came as a reaction to what happened to a Nigerian media personality, Toke Makinwa, has taken to social media to cry out, after losing all her valuables to armed robbers in London as reported by Naija News.
Naija News reported that this comes a few days after Nigerian singer, Yemi Alade, suffered the same fate at a hotel in Côte d’Ivoire when she visited the country for the Creative Africa Nexus Weekend (CANEX WKND), a 3-day gathering of creatives from Africa and the Diaspora.
Narrating her ordeal, Toke said the robbers stole all her valuables and she is speechless over the incident.
She wrote: “Just got robbed in London….I’m speechless. All my valuables are gone. God how could this happen to me.”
Ogiri further stated that wondered what the ‘Oloshos’ would tell their children when they are grown about their jobs.
She urged those who were already involved in the profession to step up and find another source of income while also warning those who were thinking of plying the same route to come up with another plan.
