Commercial sex workers in Benin City on
Sunday night offered free services to any man
that came their way as part celebrations
marking Super Eagles’ victory at the just
concluded African Nations Cup in South Africa.
Many of the sex workers in Ugbague, Dawson
road near Felona Hotel and Wire Road told our
correspondent that the Eagles victory had
given them “happiness.” In the hotel shout of “up Super Eagles” rented
the air.
“See Mr. Journalists, if you want sex, I will give
you for free because our guys in Super Eagles
today are my men. If Victor Moses, Sunday Mba
and others are here today, I will have offered
them free service.
“Oga, reporter, am an Igbo woman, the guy
that scored the goal for Nigeria is my brother, if
see him, I will service him specially, or can you
link me up.
“Since the Super Eagles players are not here for
us to be offered free services, any of our
customers that come will benefit from these
services.” Also on Sunday, two people were reportedly
killed by vehicle while celebrating Nigeria’s
triumph in the tournament. The victims were killed opposite a brothel in the
Edo State capital by an Opel Omega, said to be
on high speed.
The men, according to one of their friend, who
simply identified himself as Samson, said that
they all left the hotel to cross to the other side
of the road when the vehicle ran over the
victims, killing them on the spot. Meanwhile, Governor Adams Oshiomhole of
Edo State has congratulated the Super Eagles
on their victory at the tournament. In a statement signed by his Chief Press
Secretary, Mr. Peter Okhiria, Oshiomhole said
“the victory of the Eagles is a reflection of the
can-do spirit which makes Nigerians stand out
anywhere in the World
