ASUU strike: Prostitution Will Increase Among Female Students – Nigerian Sex Workers tell FG

The Nigerian Sex Workers Association has
said that the ongoing Academic Staff
Union of Universities, ASUU strike will only
lead to an increase in the number of
prostitution, specifically the females.


This disclosure was made by the national
coordinator of the association, Amaka
Enemo, on Friday 18th August, 2017.



The National Coordinator, Amaka
Enemo noted that even without the strike,
many female students had been engaging
in what she called “runs”, which is
another word for prostitution.



Amaka Enemo told Punch that if the strike
is not called off soon, female students
would embrace prostitution without
looking back.


According to Amaka Enemo,

“Even without the strike, a lot of the
students were doing ‘runs’ –
prostitution, which is exchanging
money for sex.



But with the strike,
just like a holiday, the rate of
prostitution in Nigeria will increase.



“In this job, strike or holiday period
is like a peak period. So, I urge them
to stay safe because we cannot kick
them off the streets.



They should be
safe and use condoms.




“The government needs to ensure
that the strike is called off because if
the students are left idle due to the
closure of schools, it means the
government is indirectly telling them
to go to the streets, for
prostitution.”
