“How I Was Sexually Assaulted by Housemaids": Pretty Mike Exposes Dark Childhood Secret, Clip Trends

• Pretty Mike opened up on how he was sexually assaulted by two house helpers at the tender age of 13, leading to the loss of his v*irginity
• The socialite urged Nigerian parents to extend the same vigilance they show for their female children to their male offspring when hiring domestic staff
• His confession got netizens talking online, with many sympathising with him and urging parents to stay vigilant

Controversial Nigerian socialite, Eze-Nwalie Nwogu, widely known as Pretty Mike, has sent shockwaves across social media with a stunning revelation about his childhood.

In a personal account, the self-proclaimed "King of Controversy" disclosed that he was sexually assaulted by two house helpers when he was just 13 years old, an ordeal that led to him losing his chastity.

Speaking on a recent episode of In The Company Of Men podcast, Pretty Mike recounted the harrowing experience that he claimed profoundly impacted his perception of sex.

His disclosure comes as a powerful testament to the often-silenced issue of male child sexual abuse, a topic rarely discussed in the open within Nigerian society.

Pretty Mike stated, his voice laced with a mixture of vulnerability and conviction:

"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 v*rginity at 13 to my housemaid. Not even one, but two."

The socialite, known for his extravagant lifestyle and often provocative public appearances, explained that while the experience undoubtedly "changed his orientation about sex," he has chosen to "let it go" particularly given his age at the time.

However, he drew a crucial distinction for younger victims, emphasising that for children as young as six, seven, eight, nine, or ten, such experiences are "totally no because they had no idea."

He passionately urged them to extend their protective instincts equally to their male children, just as they do for their female offspring, especially when engaging domestic workers.

He stressed:

"I always tell parents to pay attention to your kids, not just the females but the males also.Because I have realised that parents 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."
