Reality TV star Anita Akide a.k.a Tacha, has recommended that single ladies have more than one relationship in order to have a balance.
Speaking on The Podcast Network on YouTube, Tacha said: “You need three other boyfriends in your life… I’m not saying to sleep with all the boyfriends. But at least… You just never really know.
Tacha explained that society holds men and women to different standards, and so women must be smarter in navigating relationships.
“The kind of grace that the guys have is not the same kind of grace that we have. So we need to be able to move differently,” she said.
The TV star also shared her thoughts on living abroad compared to Nigeria. She admitted that while life in Nigeria is tough, living overseas can be even more challenging.
“As much as it’s hard here in Nigeria, it’s also hard. It’s even harder abroad, honestly,” she said, adding that many Nigerians abroad avoid returning home out of pride.
“A lot of people abroad do not want to come back because… people are going to say I went abroad, and I couldn’t make it and then I came back.
“People go through great pressure to give the impression that really, really does not exist… Two of my luggage items got stolen in Paris… It’s not this hard back here in Nigeria.”
According to her, the sense of community in Nigeria is priceless.
“You can go to your junction and say, ‘Mama Ki, give me something of 7,000. By the end of the month, I’ll pay you.’ I feel like there’s a lot more to be happy and bright about over here in Nigeria than there in the UK.”
