Harare, Zimbabwe — A shocking revelation has sent ripples through Zimbabwean society after a 23-year-old woman, Andile Sola, openly admitted to running a prostitution network involving young women, some allegedly under 25 years old. The startling confession came during an interview with popular radio host DJ Sparks, where Sola detailed how she profits from pimping and sex work.
According to Sola, she has been in the business for only two years but claims to have already built a strong network. “I am well connected now,” she stated boldly during the interview. Sola explained that she usually moves with a group of seven to eight girls whom she recruits through nightclubs and other means.
She revealed that she brokers deals with men willing to pay for the company of her recruits, effectively running a sex trade operation. Sola admitted to charging $250 USD for her own services and taking $100 USD for each transaction involving one of the girls she manages.
The young woman also spoke about some of the challenges they face in the business, including issues of trafficking and clients who refuse to pay. “It’s not always smooth,” she admitted, highlighting the risks and dangers that come with her controversial line of work.
Perhaps most disturbing was her claim of spiritual guidance. Sola referred to herself as the “Queen Mother” and said she is guided by a mermaid spirit. She suggested that this spiritual connection gives her strength and insight in her activities, adding a mystic layer to her already contentious profession.
The public reaction to Sola’s statements has been fierce, with many calling for an immediate investigation into her activities. It remains unclear whether her actions violate Zimbabwean law, as prostitution exists in a legal grey area in the country. Authorities have yet to respond to the allegations.
Legal experts say her statements could potentially expose her to criminal charges depending on the interpretation of laws surrounding human trafficking, sexual exploitation, and brothel keeping. Human rights advocates are also questioning the wellbeing and consent of the young women involved
