Yes, Abuja and some other cities are the capital of prostitute in Nigeria, it can be lucrative, that is why it goes on.

The top performers can earn in the region of $400 a night, depending on Location.

It is a short term career. I know several women who were doing questionable paid activities, strippers, pole dancer, masseuse (untrained and topless) etc. to pay their way through school or meet a debt they owe. They earn in the region of $60 00 to $12000 a year. I don't really ask them what they did: I know it involved sex and payment and certainly not drugs, but it isn't the sort of thing you ask.

They all went on to have respectable careers, though one is more reticent about working in a bank than being a former sex worker.

What I would say is none of them are proud of what they did and wouldn't recommend the life, and are now on the conservative side of dress and sexual matters and happily married.

On the other hand they aren't angst ridden about it: it was "something they did" at a different time.

Earning money through sex isn't viewed as respectable and there are more fulfilling ways to earn a living.

I don't even think the majority of women work the streets in the first world, it is pre- arranged appointments by phone, through an "agency". There is always the risk of assault and disease.

I think in the end it is about how badly they need the money.


Some prostitutes aren't, if they're doing it for drug money or being forced into it. But assuming we're talking about escorts who choose to do the job they're doing, it's a combination of factors, economic and social, and the reasons vary from country to country, but here are some of the reasons:

1: They're self-employed.
Prostitutes don't have a regular job with a salary, which means they don't have a reliable income. They're not guaranteed to have appointments whenever they want them, and the overhead on an appointment can be pretty sizeable - it's the same reason plumbers and mechanics and personal trainers are expensive, because you're not just paying them for one hour of time. They also have other costs - most escort services take a cut of what you bring in, and many escorts have security arrangements in place to reduce the risk of something happening to them.

2: Their work can be dangerous.
Higher class escorts generally take steps to make sure that there's a papertrail linking them to their punter, and more importantly that their punter knows this, but when you meet a stranger for sex there is always some degree of risk - and risky professions cost more.

3: Their work can be illegal.
In many countries, prostitution is illegal, which carries associated risks. It may also be necessary for escorts to "grease the wheels" in order to keep operating. In countries where it isn't illegal, they have to pay taxes on their earnings, which means having an accountant.

4: They often retire early.
Like athletes and dancers, escorts generally retire much earlier than a lot of other professions - and unlike athletes and dancers, they don't have something nice and explainable to put on their CV for the gap. It's important for them to build up savings to provide them some security while they look to reskill.

5: They charge what the market will bear.
Expensive escorts charge a lot of money because people are willing to pay a lot of money. Since in many places it's illegal, the market isn't well regulated, so it's at the whim of the market forces - if people keep paying a lot, escorts will keep charging a lot.

saajus:
I am surprised too. Even if they think he's a false prophet, they should still send their condolences. They don't need to write about his exploit since they believe it's false, ordinary RIP will do.

mistijude:
It's still a surprise to me why CAN,PFN and other big men of God have not sent their condolence message regarding his death till now!

in 2015 the major security problem we had was Boko
Haram and guess what? BH problem made Jonathan shift the election. this time we Got Boko Haram, Bandits, herdsmen crisis, UGM crisis and this is happening all over the Nation. APC in 2023 would tell you if Jonathan can shift the election date why can't we seeing the security issues in the country. while Jonathan on the other hand was doing all he can to reduce Boko Haram, this government will do nothing and keep shifting the election date till y'all are tired. so if you're thinking of waiting till 2023 to make a change thr ur Votes, Think again and think clearly. if ur citing fear of Army now to hit the street #June 12th I wonder what you'll cite in 2023

#June 12 protest is for Nigerians with foresight
#This is a protest to rescue ourselves and our country from
the hands of those bent on destroying it
#Last week alone over 300Nigerians were killed due to
insecurity. how many would it be this week??
#Can you beat ur chest and say I'm sure to survive it this
week??
#Are you living ur desired life?? why must Nigerians result to
alternatives when you can hold those responsible and
demand for what should be urs
#Nigerians this is the time to resist Tyranny, Oppression,
hardship and insecurity
#June 12 should not meet you at home
#Pay the price now so you would not be forced to pay it later
with or without ur wish
