A Nigerian man sparks controversy online with his advice urging men not to marry women who were with them during their financial struggles.
The content creator uploaded a video to his Instagram account, asserting that it's a grave mistake for a man to marry someone who stood by him when he lacked financial stability.
He strongly believes that such marriages often stem from pity rather than genuine love, and as the man's financial situation improves, the love may fade, leading to potential regret and resentment.
The man advised men to follow their hearts and explore other romantic options if they find themselves in such situations, as he believes a person's true character is revealed when they attain wealth.
He advised men to go ahead and follow their heart if they choose to date other people as a man’s real character is revealed when he is rich.
Here are some reactions to the video

You were probably using her to pass time till money comes? I asked this because you sod don’t marry her out of pity. Where did the pity come from? If you were both in love with each other and you stayed through to yourselves, when wealth comes, I do not think there’s any pity factor at all in it.”
