Nollywood actress, Peju Johnson, has spoken on how ‘sugar daddies’ have successfully changed the ‘orientation’ of many girl by sponsoring their lavish lifestyle.
Speaking in a recent interview with Vanguard, the actress noted sugar daddies have exposed young ladies to extravagant lifestyle thereby, undermining and making it more difficult to settle down with the average single men.
She said: “Let me say, sugar daddies have helped a lot of ladies to live a better life, changing their lives for better and at the same time, spoiling many of them.
“They change the orientation of many girls about life; helping them to fund their lifestyles and this, has made it difficult for many of them to want to settle for normal guys/ men.
“They have made many young girls look down on their boyfriends because he’s unable to do what the sugar daddy does.
“Nowadays, young girls can do anything for money, to belong or impress their mates.
“They are so desperate and just want to live the kind of lifestyles they see on Instagram.”
