Nollywood actress, Bukola Ikuomola, has revealed why she ventured into the sex toy business. She explained that her decision to venture into selling sex toys was motivated by a desire to meet human needs, much like any other business.

"Like any legitimate business, my decision to enter the sex toy industry was driven by a desire to provide solutions to human needs.An entrepreneur's role is to identify and address these needs. As society becomes more liberal and open-minded, I see great potential in this industry. So far, the experience has been positive, and I'm seeing growing interest in our products", she told Potpourri

Balancing her acting career with this unconventional business has not posed a problem for Ikuomola, who credits her peers in the entertainment industry for being supportive. "My acting career does not interfere with my business endeavors. I'm fortunate that my colleagues in the entertainment industry are mature and forward-thinking. I don't see anything unconventional about the sex toy business, except perhaps in the eyes of those who are immature or stuck in the past."

Despite the positive reception from most customers, the actress admitted she has faced occasional challenges due to societal perceptions. "I've occasionally encountered individuals with a limited understanding of the business who have tried to overstep boundaries. However, the majority of my customers have been respectful and discreet. Those who choose to buy our products are decent people who value their privacy." When asked what advice she would give to women considering similar ventures in Nigeria, Ikuomola offered encouragement, challenging the notion that Nigeria is strictly conservative. "I don't quite agree with the characterization of Nigeria as a 'conservative society.' We are a diverse and free-spirited people. My advice to others considering such ventures is to go for it. However, they should be prepared to deal with immature individuals who may not fully understand or appreciate their work."
