Nigerian rapper, Eva Alordiah, has urged Nigerian parents to have real conversations with their children about sex.
The rapper gave this advice in an apparent reaction to a sex tape scandal involving a 10-year-old girl.
In a series of tweets, Eva noted that information is easily accessible and that it is important for parents to be the ones who teach their children about sex.
According to her, children have access to a lot of information and they already know so much more than adults give them credit for.
She urged Nigerian parents to lift the veil of hypocrisy and religion and have open conversations about sex with their children, enlightening them about their sexual nature.
Speaking further, she added that the fear of hell is not as great as the desire for sex.
“I hope that more Nigerian parents will stop hiding behind the curtains of hypocrisy & righteousness, and begin to have real conversations with their own children about Sex. We are sexual beings by nature. Heal your own shame & traumas and teach your kids about their Sexual Nature
“In a world where Information is rampant and easily accessible, where most children today are gifted Ipads before they are gifted books, where Sex is on ever ready display at the click of a button, it is even more Urgent that we discuss Sex in an open, intuitive and respectful way.
“Unfortunately most Nigerian parents fold their arms and hope their children learn about Sex at the right time. When? They hope the Pastors promising hell as penalty for sin will twat the ever raging curiosity of children. The fear of hell is not as great as the desire for Sex.” She wrote.
