Former Big Brother Naija contestant Rachel Edward has ignited a social media firestorm with her recent comments regarding dating partners’ salaries. Rachel suggests that a monthly income of N800,000 (roughly $1,800 USD) is insufficient to financially support a woman in Lagos, Nigeria’s economic hub.
Her argument, centered around the inability to afford a wig with such a salary, has drawn a mix of reactions.
Some users agreed with Rachel, highlighting the high cost of living in Lagos and the need for financial security in a partner.
Others argue that Rachel’s perspective is materialistic and disregards potential for financial growth or shared responsibility within a relationship.
As a lady, you cant settle for a man with 800k as salary in lagos. One wig and your man’s salary is finished baby girl

Some commenters suggest focusing on building a financial future together rather than solely relying on a partner’s income.
