Former BBNaija contestant, Uriel, has raised concerns about materialism among Nigerian women, cautioning against dating those who prioritize constant financial demands from men.
In a critique shared on her Instagram page, Uriel questioned the trend of placing a monetary value on various aspects of relationships, including their “private area.”
Uriel stressed the importance of mutual respect in giving and receiving financial support, rather than expecting it as a matter of course.
Acknowledging economic challenges, she expressed her desire for a relationship where both partners care for each other, but lamented the prevalent materialistic attitudes.
She wrote:
“We are living in desperate Times. Ladies how did we get to the stage of asking a guy you just met to pay for your hair, so you can go on a Date with him.?? Why can’t we have respect for ourselves?? Why must we bill at every opportunity?? Even if he gives you money let it be out of Respect. Why are we putting price Tags on our Private Area?? Is it Plantain?
