Nedu Says Abuja Is Nigeria’s ‘Sugar Mummy Capital

Controversial media personality Nedu Wazobia has stirred reactions after claiming that Abuja is the headquarters of what he described as Nigeria’s “Sugar Mummy industry.”

Nedu made the remark during a conversation with content creator Ludahydrate, where the pair discussed relationships involving older wealthy women and younger men.

According to Nedu, the phenomenon has become widespread, particularly in the Federal Capital Territory.

“The Sugar Mummy industry is one of the biggest industries in Nigeria. The headquarters, as far as I am concerned, is here in Abuja,” he said.

Backing Nedu’s claim, Ludahydrate argued that the situation is linked to the presence of politicians and political appointees in Abuja.

He claimed that some wealthy men with multiple wives often divorce some of their spouses and leave them with valuable assets as part of divorce settlements.

“You will see one minister wey get like nine wives. Inside that nine, e fit just divorce three. When he divorces them, maybe he gives one an estate and another one a supermarket as settlement,” he said.

Ludahydrate added that some of the women, having acquired wealth and become financially independent, may choose not to remarry but instead maintain relationships with younger men.

“Imagine a woman wey get a supermarket and maybe another water company. She has kids but doesn’t have any man in her life. That kind of woman might not want to get married again. She will prefer to just have a Sugar Boy,” he said.

The comments have since generated mixed reactions on social media, with many users debating the accuracy of the claims.
