A woman has gone viral on social media after urging women not to give money to their partners.
In a widely shared video, she stressed:
“I keep saying this: don’t give your man a single naira. The only time you should give him money is if he has already invested significantly in you—started a business for you, acquired property for you. Even then, any loan he asks for should be just a tiny fraction, like 0.001 percent, of what he has done for you.”
Her advice has sparked lively discussions online about financial boundaries and relationships.

The video has sparked a lively debate online, with social media users sharing a range of perspectives.
Imoh Titus wrote:
“She’s right. A man must know when to receive money. Some will save it in a folder and remind you, ‘after all I’ve done for you,’ for amounts as small as 5k.”
Temitope added:
“Why give men your money when they’re not your husband? Only give your husband money.”
Yusuf commented:
“Ordinarily, men don’t even expect money from you. If you’re not coming with peace, you’re just a headache and burden.”
Tonah shared:
“If a woman gives a man money, she becomes his ATM, and he upgrades to a better model. Men also become walking wallets and get replaced. Both sides can be toxic.”
Agaji weighed in:
“That’s her business. How many women actually give men money anyway? Most people are naturally unkind and just take.”
The conversation continues as users debate boundaries, financial responsibility, and the dynamics of modern relationships.
