She recently dropped her 2 cents on social media, and Nigerians have been reacting.
According to her, she is tired of women who say they don’t need a man only to later start looking for love when they are older.
She added that the truth is a woman that has money without a man by her side as husband is worth nothing.
Her words, “I doon’t need a man, I can be without a man, what a man can do woman can do better, husband is not an achievement, blablablablabla, Osetigo deceiving young girls, but when they reach to a certain age they will now realize that a man is very important in a woman’s life just like a woman is important to a man’s life.”
“See, money is not enough, a woman that has money without a man by her side as a husband worth nothing to important mattered, the earlier our young girls know this, the better for them.”
