Mothers are not be blamed for daughter’s prostitution – Ksolo
K-Solo also advised artistes and producers to leverage social media for the growth of their careers
Music producer, Solomon Oyeniyi, popularly known as K-Solo, has refuted the claims that he blamed mothers for fuelling Internet fraud and prostitution, popularly known as ‘hook-up’ in Nigeria.
In a recent interview with Saturday Beats, Oyeniyi said, “I did not blame prostitution on mothers. Many Nigerians often react to headlines without reading the full story. That’s part of the problem we’re facing.
“I feel like mothers have a major role to play. They have a powerful influence on their children. If they say something won’t happen, it won’t.”
K-Solo stated that he rather spoke on the influence and responsibility that women, particularly mothers, have in shaping the lives of their children and society in general.
“Look at Adam in the Bible. Despite God giving him direct instructions, it didn’t take long for Eve to convince him to do otherwise. God has given women distinct powers, and when they harness this energy, Nigeria and the world will be a better place.
“A lot of mothers know when their children are lying but remain silent because of the benefits they receive. When their children go out and return with things, most times the mothers are the first takers,” K-Solo noted.
He urged influential figures to guide the younger generation by telling them their own stories, while recognising the vital contributions of mothers.
K-Solo also advised artistes and producers to leverage social media for the growth of their careers.
He said, “Tap into social media. That is where you can make money and gain recognition. However, the fame from social media is like a flash of light; to stay relevant, you need to constantly update and engage, which can be draining. It takes hard work and dedication to remain in the spotlight and make a name for yourself in this industry.”
