Reasons Music Producer K-Solo Blames Women for Rise in ‘Yahoo’ and ‘Hook-Up’ Trends

Nigerian music producer Solomon Oyeniyi, popularly known as K-Solo, has attributed the rise of internet fraud and online sex work in Nigeria to the influence of women. In a recent interview with Arise TV, K-Solo asserted that mothers play a significant role in encouraging these behaviors.

The producer claimed that some mothers have facilitated internet fraud, known locally as ‘Yahoo,’ by assisting their children in collecting proceeds from banks. He believes that substantial change will occur when mothers, female advocates, and celebrities actively speak out against these vices and serve as positive role models for young girls.

K-Solo remarked, “Hook-up culture in Nigeria is becoming as common as ordering food. It’s normalized to the extent that it is defended by comparing it to practices abroad. However, there should be regulations governing it. Much of this activity is supported covertly, and the key influencers from the home are the mothers. Unfortunately, many mothers have become enablers.”

He shared a personal anecdote about encountering a young girl, around 16 or 17 years old, whose mother instructed her to bring something back home. K-Solo confronted the mother, questioning the nature of her daughter’s activities given her appearance. He noted that this behavior is part of a broader trend, pointing out that mothers were initially involved in collecting fraud proceeds from banks when ‘Yahoo’ fraud began in Nigeria.

K-Solo emphasized that significant changes will happen when mothers and female advocates vocally oppose these vices. He also highlighted the impact of female celebrities who flaunt their luxurious lifestyles online, suggesting that if they shared the reality of their hard work, many young girls would reconsider their choices.
