I lost my virginity when I was 13 – Pretty Mike
Nigerian socialite and businessman, Eze-Nwalie Nwogu, popularly known as Pretty Mike has opened up about being sexually assaulted as a child by two house helps.
He explained that he lost his virginity at 13 as a result of the molestation.
Speaking in a recent episode of the In The Company Of Men podcast, Pretty Mike urged parents to pay attention to their male children as much as they do to the female.
He said, “Men have been encouraged to come out to talk about sexual abuse and being taken advantage of sexually at a tender age.
“I lost my virginity at 13 to my housemaid. Not even one, but two. Did that change my orientation about sex? Yes. Am I coming out to report it to say that something negative happened to me? I think I have decided to let it go, especially at that age. Nowadays, 13 can even be seen as an adult sometimes.
“For people that were taken advantage at 6,7,8,9,10 it is totally no because they had no idea. I always tell parents to pay attention to your kids, not just the females but the males also.
“Because I have realised that parents are always consider their female children when hiring domestic workers but what about the male child? They are all young. There shouldn’t be a double standard. Look out for your kids and make sure nobody takes advantage of both the female and the male.”
