I don’t blame girls making money off men — Tacha



A  former Big Brother Naija housemate, Natacha Akide, popularly known as Tacha, has said that some influencers and celebrities rely on wealthy men to sustain their lavish lifestyles.

In an interview with a United Kingdom-based media personality, Madame Joyce, she added that she had no blame for girls who do so because of the expectations of the public.

She said, “The thing with Naija is, when you now want to follow the men that will give you in excess, then you have to be on all of the blogs—‘oh, you’re following this and that man.’ But you expect public figures to look good while your brands are not paying well. What do you expect?”

Pressed further about whether girls make their money from men, she added, “Yes! Some girls are making their money from following men. I don’t know the percentage, but I’m not going to blame anybody for nothing, because, at the end of the day, you need to look good.”

She also revealed that she relocated to the UK because the pay for influencing gigs in Nigeria had diminished in value.

“I Have conquered the whole of the Nigerian market. For me, being in the UK, I am already representing Nigeria. Relocating to the UK doesn’t mean I won’t do Naija deals. If you reach out to me and the money is good, fine—why not? I will be there, yeah.”

“With the influencing scene in Nigeria, it just looks so beautiful. But behind the scenes, it’s not as beautiful as it seems. The money is nothing to write home about. Imagine wanting to pay you N6m, that’s around $3,000, for six months to influence and post two videos a month?”
