She tends to share compelling stories that’ll either make you either want to cry tears of joy or sadness… she also raises issues that hit close to home for the average Nigerian. I would find that this particular post however, did not fall in either category.

DANG as her page is fondly called, shared a story of a woman seeking advice. Her friend was dating a man who was between jobs while she on the other hand, was earning a pretty good salary. He had demanded that she pay him a monthly allowance as her paying on dates and covering some expenses out-of-pocket made him feel emasculated.

Personally, this is a red flag and if I were in said lady’s shoes, I would suggest we go our separate ways because there is something so uncomfortable about a partner feeling so entitled to my hard-earned money especially when it appears that they are also ungrateful for what it is I have done for them. Let’s also remember that he’s a boyfriend, not a husband. Warning bells all over! But that’s just me.

DANG asked her 140k followers to weigh in on the matter and here’s what some said:

What say you?
