Controversial media personality, Reno Omokri, gives his opinion on why Nigerian gospel singer Moses Bliss chose to marry a woman from Ghana instead of his own country.
The couple recently had a lavish wedding ceremony that attracted many Nigerian celebrities to the neighboring country.
Reno Omokri shared that during a visit to Ghana, he found that Ghanaian women were more relatable and capable of loving without expecting financial gain.
He suggested that if Nigeria had easier visa access, there might be an increase in unmarried women in the country as Nigerian men travel throughout Africa and may encounter women who are not solely interested in material wealth.
Reno Omokri wrote:
“I can understand why Moses Bliss married a Ghanaian. I have been to Ghana, and their women tend to be easier to relate with than many Southern Nigerian women.
“In fact, is love without billing still possible in Southern Nigeria? In our part of the world, ‘He is loving’ means ‘He is spending’. When you tell many Southern Nigerian girls, ‘I love you’, they hear, ‘You owe me’. Especially those with Industrial Money Obtainer culture.
“If Nigeria had visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to more countries, there would be an epidemic of unmarried women in Nigeria. Because when Southern Nigerian men travel within Africa and outside Africa and encounter beautiful women who are not money conscious, they quickly lose their appetite for Nigerian women. Already, Nigerian men are considered a catch by South African and Kenyan women.
“We urgently need a cultural reorientation amongst our women. Especially in Southern Nigeria. The monetisation of relationships in Southern Nigeria is just too suffocating. I am well-traveled, and I am yet to see the level of commercialisation of romance I have seen in Southern Nigeria. I call it as I see it!”
