“I’ve built two houses for my mum this year” – YhemoLee defends himself amidst backlash

In a recent development, YhemoLee has addressed the situation on Instagram in order to clarify any misconceptions.

After facing significant criticism for his remarks about financial priorities in relationships, YhemoLee shared his own acts of generosity towards his mother to counter the negative perception created by the public.

He proudly revealed that he not only built one, but two houses for his mother this year, effectively challenging the notion that he neglects his familial responsibilities.

YhemoLee’s original comments were made during an episode of “The Bad and Boujee Podcast,” hosted by Tolani Baj and Moet Abebe.

During a candid moment, he expressed his appreciation for women who are often labeled as ‘gold diggers,’ seeing their interest as a reflection of his own success.

Additionally, he mentioned that some men have a tendency to spoil their girlfriends with gifts instead of financially supporting their mothers.

It is important to note that this statement was part of a larger conversation, spanning a 1 hour and 14-minute podcast, but was subsequently condensed into a short 25-second clip, which initially sparked the controversy.

Tolani Baj declared her preference for men with passports, aligning with her love for travel. Moet Abebe, on the other hand, expressed her reluctance to date men living in the mainland area, a statement that highlights the diversity of preferences in the dating world.

Tolani Baj, while open to dating mainland residents, emphasized the importance of her partner’s willingness to commute to the island where she resides.
