Reality TV personality, Doyin David, emphasized the importance of financial independence for women before considering marriage.
In an episode of her podcast, “Doyin’s Corner,” she advised that women should have at least 5 to 10 million Naira in their account before tying the knot.
During a discussion with fellow podcaster Chizzy, Doyin David explained that having a substantial amount saved up ensures that women can stand on their own two feet in case of unforeseen circumstances.
Drawing from personal experience, she shared how her mother was able to take on all responsibilities after her father’s passing because she had savings and a job to rely on.
“At whatever level you are, you need to save up some money. For example, after my dad died, he left a lot of money. I never got to do anything. Up till now, I don’t even take public transport. I don’t know how to do all these house chores because of how I was brought up”.
“Assuming if my mother didn’t have money saved up. What will have happened? Because it took a while to access my dad’s money after his death. I didn’t feel the absence of my dad until after years because my mum took over the responsibilities”.
