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 ā¦30,000 monthly for exclusive content. When an admirer attempted to cloak judgment in concernāurging her to leave the adult content industry ābecause he liked herāāshe didnāt mince words. Her sharp reply? āYou must be very stupid.ā The remark went viral, amassing millions of impressions and cementing her as a polarizing but unignorable voice in Nigeriaās digital creator economy.
āI have 700 people sending me ā¦30k every month, and you want me to stop because you like me but you wonāt compensate me?ā 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: āTbfh, I donāt know why waywardness is selling now, but I know Iām going to eat my share of the cake. Where thereās demand, I shall supply.ā
The exchange, though fiery, highlights broader conversations in Nigeriaāand globallyāabout 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_sephyās success storyāhowever controversialārepresents more than rebellion. It represents resourcefulness. To some, she is a symptom of moral decline. To others, she is a digital-age pioneerāa woman leveraging technology to take control of her economic future in a world that often fails to give women that choice. Either way, her defianceāand her earningsāare commanding national attention.
