Former Big Brother Naija housemate Anita Natacha Akide aka Tacha, has sent a message to women.
She urged them to be financialy independent, even if their men are rich.
Speaking in an interview on Outside the Box, Tacha dismissed the idea of splitting responsibilities equally in relationships.
“Nobody would I do 50/50 with. No, no, I wouldn’t do 50/50 with anybody, really. No, no, no. I would, maybe, whilst growing up or in university, I probably would have. Or even in the university, I didn’t. So I won’t, I won’t do that now. I would say, use it as an inspiration to go get your shit together.
“Would I bring out my money sometimes? Yeah, I would. But it will not be a case where we’re doing 50/50.. no. There are times when maybe I probably do not have enough. I wanna do 100% I could. There are times that you do 100%, but the whole 50/50 thing is just giving friends and peer groups.” she added.
She was further asked how this position balanced the notion that women should not depend on any man.
“Yeah, it is true to not depend on any man. And regardless of how rich your partner or how rich your husband is, you just never know what tomorrow might bring. So it’s just always great for you to be independent. Try to get business or just anything else that makes you not be a liability.” she advised.
