In this part of the world and
continent, men
take a domineering role
in the family. The man is seen as the head of the family. Because of
that, most men take responsibility of making provision for the family in
every aspect.
Back in the days, the role of women in the family
was limited to the kitchen and the farms, where they helped their
husbands. But things have changed now as some women have assumed the
role of men in the family and mostly give support to men in terms of
providing for the upkeep of the family.
For female celebrities in
Nigeria, one challenge they face is getting
young men that would marry
them as wives, which has made some of them end up
marrying men that are
married with kids.
Most young men tend to stay away from them
because they feel
female celebs, apart from their reported wayward
lives, feel they (female celebs) are richer than them. And because of
this, most young chaps stay away from them.
Speaking on the type
of man she would love to marry, Chidinma Ekile, Nigeria's female singer
and a former winner of MTN Project Fame said she would want a man that
could take care of her needs and not the one she would feed.
According
to her, “never, I can't
date a man that doesn't
have money, I can't
feed a man.” The singer also disclosed that she is not in a hurry to get
married but that she is not in a relationship at the moment.
