Ayo Adesanya Cautions Young Girls Against the Dangers of Quick Money on Hookup
Nigerian actress Ayo Adesanya has issued a stark warning to young girls, particularly during the festive season, about the potential dangers of seeking quick wealth. In an interview with Saturday Beats, she advised young women to be wary of the allure of easy money, cautioning that not all sources of income are as innocent as they may seem.
Adesanya pointed out that many parents have failed to properly guide their children, leading some down the wrong path. “As role models, many of us have unfortunately taught children the wrong lessons. Young girls need to understand that not everything they see online is real,” she said. She went on to emphasize the importance of discernment, especially when navigating the pressures of social media and materialism.
Highlighting the perils of pursuing fast money through risky means, Adesanya warned, “There’s no such thing as easy money. In today’s economy, few people can afford to give anything away for free. For those engaging in hookups in exchange for cash, remember—if he’s not stealing your future, he’s manipulating you for something. It’s crucial to stay cautious and stay grounded in prayer.”
The actress also expressed concern over the shrinking opportunities in the Nigerian film industry, largely due to the decline in available streaming platforms. “It’s heartbreaking to see these platforms close down, especially since many of us didn’t get the chance to work with them. But I believe with time, we will create an indigenous streaming platform that will support everyone in the industry,” she said.
Reflecting on her year, Adesanya shared her gratitude for the journey so far. “The year is still ongoing, but it’s been a beautiful one for me. I’ve been truly blessed, and I look forward to more positive things ahead.”
The actress also shared her excitement about exploring new roles. “I recently played a security officer, which was a new and enjoyable experience. I’m eager to see how it turns out. This year, I’ve worked on many challenging projects with fantastic people. Some of my films will be released next year, and I’m looking forward to watching them too,” she concluded.
