Popular reality TV star, Tacha Akide, has once again stirred up controversy with her latest relationship advice. The BBNaija alum, known for her bold and unfiltered opinions, has urged women to avoid dating financially unstable men, sparking a heated debate online.
The conversation unfolded on the latest episode of the “Tea Me” podcast, where Tacha appeared alongside fellow BBNaija star Adekunle Olopade and popular critic Saidaboj. During the discussion, Tacha shared her perspective on the dynamics of modern relationships, particularly emphasizing the importance of financial stability when choosing a partner.
Tacha argued that men often prioritize physical attraction when selecting a partner, and she believes women should adopt a similar approach, prioritizing financial stability. She posed a rhetorical question to illustrate her point, saying, “A man will not date an ugly girl, so why should a beautiful girl date a broke man?”
Her assertion quickly went viral, igniting a frenzy of reactions on social media platforms. Some netizens fiercely criticized her stance, accusing her of promoting superficial values and materialism in relationships. Others, however, rallied in her defense, agreeing that financial security is an essential factor in building a successful partnership.
One critic wrote, “This is the problem with modern relationships; everything is now about money and looks. What happened to love and character?” Meanwhile, a supporter countered, “Tacha is right! Financial stability is key. Nobody wants to suffer in a relationship.”
The debate has also opened broader conversations about societal expectations in relationships, with some arguing that Tacha’s comments reflect harsh but realistic truths about dating and relationship dynamics in today’s world.
As the video clip from the podcast continues to make rounds online, it has garnered mixed reactions from fans and critics alike. Watch the controversial video below to hear Tacha’s full remarks:
