A Nigerian adult content creator known by her social media handle @call_me_sephy revealed that she earns 21 million Naira (approximately $14,000 USD) every month from online subscribers and publicly rebuked an admirer who urged her to quit her profession. When and where? The exchange unfolded in real time on X (formerly Twitter), sparking intense discussions on May 13, 2025. How is she earning that amount? Through a loyal subscriber base of 700 people, each paying her ₦30,000 monthly for exclusive content. When an admirer attempted to cloak judgment in concern—urging her to leave the adult content industry “because he liked her”—she didn’t mince words. Her sharp reply? “You must be very stupid.” The remark went viral, amassing millions of impressions and cementing her as a polarizing but unignorable voice in Nigeria’s digital creator economy.
“I have 700 people sending me ₦30k every month, and you want me to stop because you like me but you won’t compensate me?” she wrote. Her post quickly ballooned to over 4 million views, drawing applause, criticism, and existential questions about modern labor and morality.
In a follow-up tweet that was equally candid, she added: “Tbfh, I don’t know why waywardness is selling now, but I know I’m going to eat my share of the cake. Where there’s demand, I shall supply.”
The exchange, though fiery, highlights broader conversations in Nigeria—and globally—about autonomy, dignity, and the economics of desire in a society where traditional norms often clash with digital capitalism. In a country still grappling with unreliable power supply, youth unemployment, and systemic gender bias, @call_me_sephy’s success story—however controversial—represents more than rebellion. It represents resourcefulness. To some, she is a symptom of moral decline. To others, she is a digital-age pioneer—a woman leveraging technology to take control of her economic future in a world that often fails to give women that choice. Either way, her defiance—and her earnings—are commanding national attention.
