Pretty Mike discussed the cost of his dramatic appearances, the reasons behind them, and his answer to those who accuse him of fetishism and occultism in an interview with DoroTV.
Why the controversy?
When questioned if he had a message behind his opulent entrances, the businessman clarified that it is straightforward: he wants to stand out and attract attention.
"I believe I'm merely attempting to attract attention. He added, "I'm also trying to help the audience and do something unique, something that other people don't do."
It takes skill to pull off these spectacular performances. The club owner disclosed that he occasionally shells out millions of dollars to realize his ideas.
"To be honest, I haven't taken the time to figure it out, but whatever it takes to carry it out, sometimes it's five, six, or seven million naira," he said.
Addressing allegations
The controversial stylist has often been accused of fetish or occult practices due to his strange exploits. However, he is unfazed by the criticism.
He said, "I just check my bank account, and if there are no debits, I'm good."
The socialite said, "I'm one in tune with my God," dismissing any spiritual consequences for his behavior. I have no fear of anything. I have a clear head. Both my conscience and my thoughts are clear.

Love, marriage
Even though he doesn't believe in love, Pretty Mike has unexpected plans for the future, including getting married.
The businessman said, "I will soon get married, but I don't believe in love."
He responded, "For me, it's all about respect, understanding, and God," when asked what qualities he looks for in a spouse.
He left it up to the imagination as to whether or not he would make a grand entry at his wedding.

Legal pitfalls
Legal threats and public indignation seem to have no effect on the socialite. He gave a direct response when asked if he believed there was ever a time when he might cross the line:

"I'm anticipating that."
And if he ever finds himself in legal hot water? "I'm excited about it," he remarked, laughing. "We're ready to go."
When Pretty Mike went to events in January 2017 with ladies wearing dog collars and treated them like dogs, it infuriated the public. Authorities in Lagos State arrested him as a result of his acts, and he later apologized publicly.
He made waves once more in June 2021 when he attended a wedding where six bridesmaids were all pregnant. Questions over the children's paternity and the message he was attempting to convey were raised by this odd behavior.
