How can you include illegal activities in GDP computation? So they have to include Internet fraud, Armed robbery, banditry, and all sort of things, provided they bring earnings.

Urheadmaster:

Omo, prostitution has been added to Nigeria's GDP templates.

What this mean is that prostitution has been legalized and that prostitutes are now expected to pay taxes

No, it doesn't mean it has been legalised. It just means that our GDP is higher than what NBS is capturing.

Am not sure it was illegal before, otherwise the hotels will not accept them and hookups will not be possible. It's more of moral issue

You want to add prostitution and drugs to GDP when drug dealers and prostitutes are being arrested.

What kind of nonsense is this?

The other time, they said that almajiri and beggars are employed because they earn money. This time it's prostitution is an industry.

When you have an oluwole president, everything will be FIXING. IF he doesn't like this, instead of going through the process to earn it, he'll infix it

I have always been advocating for this that it should be included in the nations GDP, developed countries in the world do this.

Its fast-becoming global best practice, feminist in the forum should be very proud of their accomplishments.
