    Rita Edochie berates women who stay with cheating men for money

    Nollywood actress, Rita Edochie has berated women who stay with cheating lovers just because of the monetary benefits.

    The veteran actress, via her Instagram page on Wednesday, today October 9, noted that back in the day, women yelled and starved their partners sexually when they discovered that their men were cheating on them.

    She said if such a man fails to change his ways, the woman will then walk away from him.

    Edochie added that it is rather unfortunate to see women nowadays choose to stay in toxic relationships where the men cheat recklessly and showers their partners with money as compensation.

    In her words, she said: “It is really very unfortunate to see women preferring to be in a toxic relationship where cheating and infidelity takes the lead simply because the so called man showers them with money. You can image a situation where a wife or a fiancee tells her man to use protection while having sex with another woman.

    “Chai, i weep, what happened to your respect and presitage as the woman of the house? Have you sold them for pounds and dollars? During our time once we find out that our men cheats on us, we will kick against it with full force, yell at him, starve him sexually and give him certain attitudes he wont find comfortable and if he refuses to stop cheating, we will walk away from the marriage or relationship irrespective of who he thinks he is or how much he thinks he has

    “Ladies you can do better now, its high time you start proving to your men that money doesnt buy respect.

    “Secondly, i have been saying this though, ladies have something you do that fetches you money, be a boss, sail your own ship by yourself so you can confortably tackle a man who keeps messing up. It is only when you depend on your man for survival that you will have no say when he begins to trample on your emotions as a woman. Please plan yourselves biko nu maka na tata bu gbooo.”

    Nollywood actress cum film maker Toyin Abraham has reacted to the ongoing rumour alleging she was owing a debt worth millions of Naira.

    TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) reports that a fashion designer called out two Nollywood actresses, Toyin Abraham and Annie Idibia, alleging that they owed millions of Naira.

    In a post on social media, the designer, whose name was not mentioned, alleged that the high-grossing actress her colleague, Idibia and another person identified as Gabriel Anthony had owed her for some time now.

    In her response to the allegation, the actress via her verified Instagram handle on Friday, stating that the situation was misunderstood.

    According to her, she borrowed some clothes to shoot her movie, ‘Malakia’, when Gabriel suggested to her that he had a friend who could borrow them clothes.

    The actress further said that the clothes used on the runway were later returned to Gabriel after the shoot; however, Gabriel held unto the cloth and gave them to another person.

    The actress further explained that she challenged Gabriel, and he acknowledged that he gave the clothes to another person and had informed the designer.

    Her post reads: “I want to address the recent allegations regarding an unpaid debt to a fashion designer. The situation has been completely misunderstood, and I’d like to clarify what happened.

    “During the production of the movie Malaika, there was a runway scene, and we needed dresses. We contacted a couple of designers, Tiannah, to provide the dresses. Additionally, Gabriel, who was part of the team, mentioned that a friend of his also wanted to contribute some dresses, and she did.

    “I even bought a hairpiece from her, for which I paid in full. As for the dresses she provided, they were borrowed for the shoot, and once we finished using them, I handed the dresses back to Gabriel, who had initially brought them to us.

    “Upon seeing the allegations online, I immediately called Gabriel for clarification. Gabriel confirmed that he informed the designer that the dresses had already been returned to him, and that they were subsequently borrowed by someone else. It is, therefore, no longer my responsibility.

    “I hope this clears the confusion. Screenshots of THE conversation between the designer and Gabriel will be included for further proof. I appreciate everyone’s understanding and support.”

  • Why women over 35 should get pregnant outside wedlock -Veteran actress Binta

    Why women over 35 should get pregnant outside wedlock -Veteran actress Binta

    Veteran Nollywood actress cum film maker, Binta Ayo Mogaji, has urged women above 35  who desire motherhood to get pregnant outside wedlock.

    The 60-year-old actress during a recent interview with Oyinmomo TV encouraged unmarried women over 35 to consider having children outside of wedlock.

    “What I’m saying is, once you’re 35 or older and you don’t have a husband, but there’s someone in your life who is with you but not ready for marriage, and he wants a child, have a child with him, even if he won’t accept responsibility for the child,” she advised.

    Drawing from her own experiences, the prominent film maker narrated how she faced and overcame societal pressures, before eventually marrying UK-based physiotherapist, Victor Oduleye, in 2006. 

    She added that she endured 13 years of abuse before the marriage ended.

    Mogaji emphasized that women should prioritize motherhood over societal expectations. She also encouraged women to consider adoption if they cannot find a partner.

    “When she is looking for a husband at 35, they’ll say she’s too old and won’t be able to wash clothes for her mother-in-law or be controlled,” the actress said.

    “They’ll advise the man to find a younger lady to listen to him. Even if she’s fortunate to marry at that age, she’ll already be old when her child grows up. Some people at 45 or 50 are already grandmothers.

    “When your mates are grandmothers, and you’re still saying you’re looking for a husband, when will you find a husband and become a grandmother?

    “So, my advice is, if God blesses you with someone who likes you and you can have children together, go ahead and do it.

    “If you find someone you like, ask him to impregnate you as long as you want a child and can take care of the child. But if you want a child and cannot find a man to impregnate you, then consider adoption.”

    “No matter how terrible your husband is, don’t ever think of chasing him out or leaving his house because you will have to beg later when your children have an important event,” she said.

    “You as the woman have suffered in your marriage and if you leave, no single man will marry you. Stay in your husband’s house and just beg him to protect himself.

    “I have a friend who buys packs of condoms for her husband whenever he is visiting Nigeria. When the man arrives, he will call me to let me know what my friend did.

    “Won’t he sleep with another woman? Can a woman come to Nigeria and her husband buys her condoms? We don’t have equal rights and I will continue to say this.

    “Please men, take us as your cross and see us as your first child. We have also married you and taken you as our first child because despite how wise men are, they are also very foolish.

    “Whatever we want you to see is what you will see. Between us women and our children, whatever we want you to know is what you’ll know. So, because of that, I also don’t support having a joint account.”
