Imagine,
as a young man in Port Harcourt City, I decided to pick up a sex worker on Abacha Road, GRA, last night. I asked her how much it would cost for the night and she said 50,000 Naira. I was surprised and asked if she was serious. Her response was that fuel prices are high.
I asked if her body uses fuel or petrol. She said I should be aware of the economic hardship. I asked if the hardship affects her line of work. She became upset and told me to negotiate better. I offered 20,000 Naira, but she refused. I decided to leave.
50,000 Naira for just one night is excessive, equivalent to someone's monthly salary for just a brief encounter. Gone are the days when one could visit24 Victoria Street porthaecourt town,Azikiwe, Ojoto, Abuja, and other places in Port Harcourt City and pay no more than 5,000 Naira.
