Nigerian media personality Nedu has said marriage is dead as it is now a poverty alleviation scheme for some women.
He made the statement against the backdrop of the divorce saga between Moroccan footballer Achraf Hakimi and his Spanish wife, Hiba Abouk.
In a video he shared on his Instagram page, Nedu claimed that Abouk married Hakimi because she envisaged that after some years in the relationship, she would seek divorce and leave with half of his fortune.
