Former Big Brother Naija contestant, Rachel Edward, has cautioned women against entering into relationships with men who earn N800,000 or less monthly, particularly in Lagos. She argued that such a salary wouldn’t suffice to meet a woman’s needs, emphasizing that it would barely cover the cost of a single wig.
Expressing her perspective on her social media platform, the reality star stated, “As a lady, you can’t settle for a man with N800,000 as salary in Lagos. One wig and your man’s salary is finished, baby girl.”
Her statement generated varied reactions from social media users.
@OmotayoOfLagos criticized Edward’s focus solely on material possessions, suggesting that she should consider investment opportunities or strategies to multiply the N800,000 income rather than fixating on wigs and superficial lifestyle choices.
@DianaBest echoed the sentiment that an N800,000 salary is insufficient in the current economic climate, questioning its adequacy in meeting basic needs.
@LonelyAfrica emphasized the importance of pursuing meaningful endeavors and building financial stability with partners instead of solely prioritizing material possessions like wigs. They suggested investing in long-term ventures and mutually supporting each other for lasting success.
