Toke Makinwa, a Nollywood actress and social media influencer, has warned women in relationships not to make unreasonable demands from their partners. According to her, it is wrong for women to ask for things they cannot afford for themselves resulting in so much pressure on men.
In her latest podcast, “TokeMoments,” she warned women not to push their partners to buy them an expensive house and very expensive things.
She said, “As a woman, you’re living in Mushin, and you’re putting pressure on a guy to buy you a house in Banana Island. I’m sorry. Make it make sense. Can you buy it? Can you even move yourself out of where you are small?
“If he meets you maybe like halfway and you are saying to him that ‘Bros, I worked hard to get halfway but I’ve a dream. My dream is not to be here where you met. And I’m not lazy. For me to leave this point to get to that point, you can see the trait of hard work. Are you going to join me to move there or are you going to be there?’ Period.”
She added that women with excessive demands are the reason some men use bad words on women.
