Popular clergywoman, Mildred Okonkwo, sparked controversy with her opinion that girls who ask for money for transportation are lazy and therefore useless. She delivered this statement during a church service to her congregation.
In her sermon, she advised men to avoid marrying women who exhibit laziness as they search for life partners. According to her, the fact that a man is asked to give money to a lady already indicates that she is financially dependent and lacks the ability to support herself.
The clergywoman's statement received mixed reactions on social media. Some users disagreed with her choice of words, considering it inappropriate for a minister of God. Others shared differing perspectives, suggesting that asking for transport fare might have various reasons, such as not having a job at the moment or starting from humble beginnings before achieving financial stability.
Despite the reactions, Mildred Okonkwo's remarks have ignited discussions about gender roles, financial independence, and relationship dynamics.
