Self-acclaimed relationship expert and socialite, Blessing Okoro, popularly called Blessing CEO has incurred the anger of many Benin women for referring to them as “prostitutes.”
Leading the group of complainers is the winner of the Big Brother Naija, Phyna, who in a statement, described Blessing CEO’s comment as “insensitive.”
Blessing CEO had made the statement in an Instagram live video yesterday, November 16.
She wrote: “it’s very rare before you see a very decent girl wey mama train; once you are 14 or 16 years in Benin your mama don send you go Libya go start ashawo.
For Benin wetin dem carry know Benin people na ashawo, I am not lying that is the truth. If you go to Italy, Europe na Benin full there,” she said in parts.
