South African reality TV star and radio presenter, Malibongwe Gumede, has stirred a debate by asserting that Nigerian women enter romantic relationships with the intention of extorting money from their partners.
Gumede made these remarks during the latest episode of the Frankly Speaking podcast, co-hosted by Nollywood actor Chinedu Ani Emmanuel, also known as Nedu.
In the podcast, Gumede highlighted what she perceives as a difference in approach between South African and Nigerian women when it comes to relationships.
She stated, “We South African women, if we like a guy, let’s say a Nigerian guy, we will not hide our feelings. You don’t even have to start spending money before I can do anything with you. If I like you, I like you. It’s genuine.”
However, Gumede went on to express her observation about Nigerian girls, saying, “But with Nigerian girls, what I’ve noticed is that first, they need to suck everything out of you. That’s what I’ve noticed about Nigerian girls.”
“They love money too much. You know, South African girls, we can love you even if you don’t have money, as long as you are trying. But with Nigerian girls, it’s all about the money.”
“If you don’t have money, they won’t even speak to you. What will they be gaining from you if you don’t have the money to maintain their lifestyles?”
