Nigerian veteran singer Paul Okoye, also known as Rudeboy and a member of the former group Psquare, has caused a stir online with his recent advice to Nigerians.
Taking to his Instagram story, the musician stressed the importance of homeownership as a key to achieving financial freedom and independence.
Rudeboy advised his followers to consider purchasing a home rather than renting, warning that the fear of landlords could result in disrespect and a sense of confinement.
See ehh… No matter what you do in life, make sure you work so hard to avoid rent. Because that’s a lifetime freedom. Get yours. It doesn’t matter where or the location. The fear of landlords is the beginning of disrespect and see finish. Get yours. That will be the beginning of your financial freedom.”
This advice comes amidst a public feud with his twin brother, Peter Okoye.
The post has sparked a debate online, with many supporters agreeing with the message while others have questioned the feasibility of buying a home in the current economic climate.
