[A Nigerian lady] residing in the United Kingdom has expressed her belief that Nigerian women back home have a better experience when it comes to receiving financial support from men. [Anike Banks], an entrepreneur, asserted that Nigerian ladies living in their home country are lucky but they don't realize it. She claimed that [men in the United Kingdom are generally stingy] and do not freely give money to women. Anike humorously stated that if she were fortunate enough to receive £20 from someone, she would gladly introduce him to her parents, highlighting the rarity of such gestures in her current environment.
In her own words;
“Nigerian women living in Nigeria don’t understand how lucky they are. UK men didn’t give anything. Awon stingy kokoshi. If someone dares squeeze £20 in my hand, I’ll invite him to come meet my parents”

Everyone’s saying this. My sister, friend and even a total stranger I don’t know before said this too. UK boys y’all should do better 💀💀

“Even the ones moving from Nigeria to here are adapting to that culture.”
