Speed Darlington's Bold Offer

He explained: "I was offering N3 million two years ago, but I didn't like the age range of the people I met. Now, I'm willing to pay N5 million to any lady willing to have a child for me."
Age and Financial Preferences
Speed Darlington specified the type of woman he prefers. According to him, the ideal candidate should be between the ages of 20 and 24.
