Nollywood actress and media personality, Toke Makinwa, has countered the claims that modern Nigerian women are materialistic and often date or marry for financial benefits.
She argued that romantic relationship has always been transactional since ancient times.
Speaking in a recent episode of the MENtality podcast hosted by Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, Makinwa claimed that the reason modern Nigerian women are accused of being hyper-materialistic was because Nigerian men can’t offer more than financial benefits in a relationship.
She said, “From time immemorial, a relationship between a man and a woman has always been transactional, right from the Garden of Eden, right from our parents’ days. And the degree at which it is happening now, I will blame the men. Sometimes, that [financial benefits] is all men have to offer.
“Nigerian men don’t have games aside from money. Once a Nigerian man makes money, he starts throwing it at the hottest girls. Sometimes, you meet a man and you want to know him but he is offering you money.
“Men have offered women strangest things and it made me realise that men feel cash is all they need to show you. Most girls who are materialistic today, men taught them how to make demands.”

In another development, GISTSMATE MEDIA reports that Veteran actor, Bob-Manuel Udokwu has shared his opinion on why Nigerian male actors struggle more financially than their female counterparts.
According to him, actors struggle more financially than actresses because they have more responsibilities than their female counterparts.
He claimed that life is “generally easier” for women than men.
Speaking in a recent interview with Udala, Udokwu said he was angered by Nigerians who were asking what late actor John Okafor did with his earnings from the movie industry when he was soliciting for funds for hospital bills. READ MORE
