Alarm over rampant 'sponsor' culture among female University students


1 in 5 female University students are reportedly engaged in relationships with older men or women in exchange for money, a lifestyle that is termed as the ‘sponsor culture’ according to study conducted by the Busara Centre for behavioural economics in 2020.

  1. African culture used to resolve this by polygamy. If a man had resources he married multiple women and all was kosher. Mukaleta ujuaji na vile mwafrika ni maskini. Mutajua hamujui.

  2. Not only campus students. Many jobless youths succumb to this because there is no any other way of survival. High unemployment rates. Remember not everyone can do any job. That's why some people would rather be house girls because of unemployment while others can't do that but would rather hawk clothes, shoes.etc. in 1st world countries, sponsor culture is not there in high percentage because jobs are available. Who in There right mind would want a fat old wrinkly man on top of them ? Ewww

  3. Whoever lives by the sword dies from the sword dont be surprised if i keep tracking with those degree papers without finding job coz the foundation is not God'ly thats y many graduates are big losers n end up being employed by the "illetrates"

  4. Isn't this the same as what used to happen in some cultures? Multiple wives and a younger one each time. Speak about HIV not what consenting adults choose to do.

  5. this is not new neither is it only happening here in Africa, The U.S and Europe have been going through this morden age transitionwhereyoung educated women are looking for a future already built in stone, modern women want to reap the fruits without sowing, nobody wants to struggle and remain poor all their lives but instead of building something solid with that one broke guy trying his best to earn honestly,they choose the subaru boys, no problem to my youth brothers lets keep that money in our pockets keep our focus on ourselves and let this small girls get their sponsors…we wont marry them anyway and when you do level up to that stage you'll be able to pick who you want

  6. The only way to get rich is through hard work and putting God first in everything and not forgetting him when blessed. But getting wealth through evil ways has harsh and brutal results because it requires evil ways to maintain them.

  7. Once a woman tastes the easy money she’s bound for poverty coz … working hard in her lifetime will seem like punishment considering these sponsors will go for the younger girls in just a few yrs.

  8. Sponsor culture is not only in university students but also young females and males. Soft life is a lifestyle many crave for, also peer pressure.
