Some days ago, I and a friend who recently returned from abroad were gisting about life, and one thing led to another, we ended up discussing Nigerian issues like- insecurity in the northeastern Nigeria, abnormal increase in graduate unemployment, politics, and of course romance; basically the rate at which true love is fading away in Nigeria of our time.
It was at this point that my friend started telling me stories of how Nigerian ladies abroad (especially those living in US and UK according to him) play hard-to-get and difficult for Nigerian guys living abroad, especially if they discover that the guy isn't from a wealthy family back in Nigeria.
He revealed to me that many Nigerian guys living in US and Uk would love to marry Nigerian ladies living there, but that the problem is that Nigerian ladies don't always make it easy for Naija guys living there with them to approach them and that most of the Naija ladies there usually flock around a Nigerian guy there if they notice that the guy is from a wealthy Nigerian family or at worst, studying medicine or working as a doctor there.
He also mentioned that he has observed that Nigerian ladies who come from wealthy family backgrounds or those who worked hard to become rich themselves will never agree to date or marry a Nigerian guy who isn't richer than them or popular; that's a celebrity.
His statement shocked me because exactly what he said was also my thought having observed things here in Nigeria for some time now, and some months ago, I also overheard a group of guys discussing same thing at a gathering I went to.
Now, I want to throw this question open to Nigerian ladies of all social status, since nairaland is a popular forum where people of all class visit...please no insults, I just want to hear your opinion.
Why don't we see more of rich single Nigerian ladies date or marry not-so-rich Nigerian guys? Is it a crime or does it mean Nigerian ladies only develop love when they see or smell wealth and success?
At least, we have witnessed or heard of several cases of wealthy Nigerian guys date and marry poor Nigerian girls from poor families who don't even have a job, but on the other hand, we rarely hear or see rich Nigerian single ladies date or marry not-so-rich Nigerian guys; I am not even talking of dating or marrying broke guys, I mean guys who aren't that rich or popular.
Before anyone come calling for my head, please kindly sit back and observe things in your area of residence; you will notice that we now have plenty number of Nigerian single ladies working in big companies and earning fat salaries, some are born into wealth, some have become rich doing business, yet these ladies are single probably waiting for a rich or richer guy to come ask them out and marry them, hence making it difficult for them to find husband.
But in other countries of Africa, Europe, Asia, and Americas, rich ladies date and marry broke and not-so-rich guys without issues, but is seems to be different in Nigeria, why pls
What then is the need of fighting for feminism and gender-equality if NIgerian ladies can't embrace the changes that comes with gender equality/feminism?
Let me give some examples:
Linda Ikeji, Genevieve Nnajia, Rita Domnic, Funke Akindele, Tonto Dikeh, Kate Henshaw, etc
Believe it or not, Linda Ikeji wants to marry, but she's probably waiting for one rich guy or son of a former minister, governor, MD, etc to settle down with.....same with Genevieve Nnaji, Rita Domnic, Funke Akindele, and so many others that are not that popular but rich or come from rich family background.
Does it mean that rich Nigerian guys dating and marrying poor or not-so-rich Nigerian girls are fools
At least Marriah Carey married poor Nick Cannon...and many of such cases abound in western countries, but rarely happen in Nigeria, why? Something is wrong somewhere, can someone please explain.
Note:
I am not saying its a crime for a lady to date or marry rich guy, neither am I saying that a lady must date/marry broke guy, I am just curious as to why it is rare to hear that a rich single Nigerian lady is dating or married to a guy who isn't rich? Linda Ikeji, Genevieve Nnajia, Rita Domnic, Funke Akindele, Tonto Dikeh, Kate Henshaw, etc..are still single?? ...strange....... |

This happens because . . .
1. You rarely find two financially different classes together. Rich people don't go where not so rich people are.
2. The percentage of women that marry men who are poorer than them is constant in all races. It only seems like white women do it more is because they are more than us.
3. Most white women that behave like this are gulible and foolish. Too much romantic movies. They are usually fat or roboust from too much popcorn from movies. They often believe in love and fail to notice they're being used. Nigerians know better.
3. Women are generally attracted to men who are better than them. It's a natural instinct. You can't change it. Feminism can't change it either. No matter how much they cry for equality, they still desire men who are better than them. Even rich girls desire rich guys. Which is why i don't criticize girls that go for money. It's natural.
4. If white women marry black men, it's usually out of curiousity. If a nigerian girl possesses this kind of curiousity, she is more likely to date a korean or a mexican. Not a member of her own race.
5. You exaggerated.
6. There is something called Bleep. There is a class of practicioners of this . . . Phenomenon, called submissives. They are extremely humble and docile. They have zero pride and arrogance and can be easily controlled despite their material possessions. It is extremely difficult to find a submissive among the nigerian race. Almost everyone is a dominant.
7. White women are inexperienced to the sweet tongue nigerian men are blessed with. From our awesome accent to our bodacious dexterity in the art of poetry. We exist to blow the female mind away.
Except she is nigerian. And then she can see through our tricks.
8, the way whites view material possessions may well differ from our own. 15 Likes 2 Shares |

Even when they try n marry a man they are richer than,they keep reminding him of everything they help him out on,disrespect him and disregard him as the head of the home. Yet they still turn around and select men who are rich when they are on the disadvantaged side. Smh,but what can we do? we are stuck with them man. Just look for a good one to date. |

A very good observation.
A good majority of the so-called well-off Nigeria ladies are into nursing which gets them about $100k/year. Is that a lot of money? No. But coming from Nigeria, it is. They want a man who earns something similar or more. A lot of Nigeria single males when their incomes go up tend to gravitate towards foreigners. Perhaps, in areas like Atlanta or Houston with a large congregation of blacks per square mile, they may marry fellow blacks. But in fast paced metropolis like NY or southern California, the chance of marrying a foreigner is higher. It could be fellow African but not necessarily Nigerian. Who wants to deal with all the in-laws feeling of entitlement BS?
Coming to Nigeria, there are many factors at play. Nigerians love class--Either you belong or you don't. The ladies are scared of gold-diggers. I will not rule out that some of them may be "closet lesbians". Really? Well, rate of lesbianism in secondary school level alone is very alarming. But the society will make them remain closet lesbians for fear of ostracization. I always have the opinion that the greatest obstacle to marriage for Linda Ikeji will be her siblings. A suitor has to prove beyond reasonable doubt that he is not there to block their access to the infringe benefits they get from her. Otherwise, nobody will be good enough for her until she turns around and she is 50.
Here comes the disclaimer: I could be wrong.
\ Here in Germany and Switzerland most Nigerians end up marry foreigners like people from other African country... You see a medical doctor female married to a Nigerian factory worker man or worse self |

Pls, i need honest answers just as the one u wrote up there.Thank u in advance You know, people want to eat their cake and have it.

This Topic is a very interesting one which needs to be addressed. In my opinion, I think some of those rich girls need aNY guy be rich or poor to ask them out but there are some factors hindering it. The factors are
1] some guys are afraid of asking them out because of their financial status.
2] Most of those girls don't go to where a normal average guy can see n approach them. They tend to go to more advanced places like the coolest bars in town where normal guy can avoid etc.
Also, u said ur friend said something about Nigerian girls trying to play hard to get in abroad, but that's not true. They ain't playing hard to get over here. They are usually not serious when they are still young and in school. Always dating different guys, going to all clubs n bars. But will know want to marry after we have all slept with them. So who will want to marry a girl u know at least 4 to 5 guys have slept with? 1 Like |
