From TBlak’s Stargirl To Snapchat Porn Business CEO! Here’s Peace Olayemi’s Story

It seemed as if Tobiloba Isaac Jolaoso- known to fans and critics alike as King Tblak had cracked the code: he appeared on the internet less than three years ago pushing his porn videos on social media. What started like NFSW clips on Instagram soon became full-blown sexual activity on Snapchat. He charges N30,000 for access to his premium account where the show takes place.

Although Tblak features only himself as the male character, he has a collection of women who shocking are unconcerned with showing off their bodies- and their faces- wherever the videos are published. From time to time, his accounts get blocked on social media but being a savvy businessman he always manages to spring up new ones to which he redirects his audience.

One of the most recognizable faces in his harem is a dark-skinned young lady. Perhaps it’s a consequence of her ample breasts, Peace Olayemi quickly became one of his most popular porn stars. For nearly a year, she was a constant feature in his videos- along with another favourite of his, ‘Lady Gold’. She was always excited to be in front of the camera and happy to repost clips of she and Tblak having sex. Tblak claimed that his actresses earned as much as three hundred thousand naira, depending on their willingness to go all the way by showing their faces and having sex on camera without any sort of protection.

Tblak calls himself ‘African Hugh Hefner’. Like the founder of Playboy, he too soon got tired of the same faces and replaced them with newer talent. There were reports of a falling out between the two. Peace found herself surplus to requirement and out of the Tblak ‘mansion’.

For a while, it was obvious that she found it difficult to live up to the life she’d been accustomed to. The photos she posted on her Instagram showed a less glamorous setting to what her fans had been used to seeing. Tblak lives with all his women in a Lekki apartment. When Peace Olayemi stopped being the apple of his eye, she had to move away- as far as Akure where she was born and raised.

From time to time, she came back to Lagos where she ‘ran some shows’ across the hotels in the city. The question on people lips now became ‘Where’s the money she reportedly made with Tblak? If indeed he paid between fifty and three hundred thousand naira per flick, shouldn’t his best performer be well off?’ Things became dire that at a point, Olayemi and Gold put out a video where they were practically begging to be offered a decent job to escape their porn/prostitution life. ‘We have fully repented and promise not to go back to doing porn, please help us with decent jobs…’ they said.

In 2018 though, Peace is no longer begging, neither is she done with the porn business. Apparently, she realized that Tblak’s popularity was a result of his smart use of Snapchat to acquire his clientele. Using that model too, she has revamped herself. No longer associated with Tblak, she has taken matters into her own hands and attracting jocks.

She deleted all her old photos and advertised that similar to her former boss, she too has now commenced a Snapchat business, using the same method of making use of a private account to which access can be gained only after paying a subscription fee. She already has 72,000 followers on Instagram. Unlike Tblak though, she stays just on the borderline of actual sexual activity: she dances and strips, sometimes shows off her breasts and buttocks. On a few occasions, she has shown herself masturbating through her underwear but not actually showing sexual acts.

For a society as conservative as Nigerians make theirs to be; sex and prostitution are in your face across the country. Brothels are an open secret and sex workers stand on the road with little disturbance from police officers. Legend has it that policemen make a healthy percentage of the client base.

Peace Olayemi may be yet another example of how porn merchants are bypassing physical structures to running their business online. She may be criticized but all those people paying to watch her are not ghosts. She knows that her offering is in hot demand, and she’s merely satisfying the market.
