Twenty-four-year-old Be�atrice Okeke (not real name), a student of a vocational institute in Owerri, the capital of Imo State, performed the feat, as it were.
Indeed, for Beatrice, sex is a way of life, a daily routine. According to her, she resorted to using what she has to get what she needs when her boyfriend who was sponsoring her education abandoned her following lies told against her by jealous friends.
�My boyfriend whom I met at Onitsha, Anambra State when I went to visit an un�cle was sponsoring my education. We had agreed to get married as soon as possible. Then some people I regarded as friends started peddling wicked lies against me and without confirming if what they were saying was true or false, he called it quits just like that. They told him I had an incur�able disease. So, I decided to help myself because my parents cannot do anything for me. We are poor. My father used to be a driver but he is now a lumber jack while my mother is a full time housewife. Sometimes, she sells vegetables, ” she explained.
She said that when her boyfriend walked out of the relationship, she got a job in the bar section of a hotel but her take-home pay could barely take her any�where. So, one day, she went to a night�club with her friends and a man took her to his hotel room. The following morning, the man gave her N15,000 for services rendered and she was hooked.
Consider what she said: �They were paying me N10,000 a month and you work late hours. But if you go out to hustle in the night, you can get that kind of mon�ey within a day or two. About 600 men slept with me from last year to this year.”
But Beatrice is now singing a different tune. She said that she later discovered that prostitution is not as lucrative as she had thought.
She said that she is tired of warming men’s bed every night, adding that she wants to settle down.
Below is excerpt of the conversation she had with the reporter:
How far?
I’m not fine
Wetin dey do you?

How do you mean?
I don’t have money to take care of myself.
What happened to all the money you’ve making?�
Which money?
From your night outings
I don’t have any money, please.
So, you were doing it for free?
Not like that; there is not much money in it.
So, I’m not going anywhere again. I’m looking for true love. The one that will take good care of me.
How much were you making per night?
Sometimes N5,000 or more. Sometimes a man will sleep with you and in the morn�ing he will start telling you stories, saying he has no money.
In such situation what do you do?

We now met the man and told him what happened to us. He now accommo�dated us in his house. That night, he gave me food to eat. The following day I left. I did not know I was pregnant.

Nothing. I just went.
There must be a reason for doing that. Tell me the truth
Ok. A man came to seek my hand in marriage. That was why I went.
Why didn’t you marry him?
I don’t like him.
You don’t like him, yet you went to do the test. Tell me the truth
Sir, I’m telling you the truth.

Nothing; I just went.

After sleeping with a man in a hotel at night, you go to church in the morning?
Not always.
Why did you stop hus�tling?
I’m tired of it.
Is it because you are no longer making enough money?
It’s not like that. I want to settle down. I’m tired.
You are tired of everyday sex?
Yes. I want to marry. I need God’s help in my life.
But you are still select�ing?
I’m not selecting. I need true love.
Help is on the way

Yes. I’m tired.
Please sir, I need help. I only look up to God for help.

I can’t remember the date but it was on a Sunday. I think it was in May.
So, no amount of money can make you do it?
Yes sir.
That’s good
I want to settle down.

How? I don’t understand. Hmmm. Me?
Permanent solution to your problem
Prostitutes? That means you don’t like me.
Ladies looking for men to sleep with are called pros�titutes or harlots. You were doing that
Yes I know. But not now.
Ok. You are a retired prostitute
No. I’m not a prostitute.
