Why Moses Bliss Snubbed Nigerian Women For A Ghanaian- Reno Omokri
Renowned Nigerian author, lawyer, and social commentator, Reno Omokri, has put forth a theory regarding the decision of Nigerian gospel artist Moses Bliss to choose a Ghanaian woman over Naija women.
According to Omokri, Nigerian women tend to prioritize financial gains and are more focused on billing their partners than other aspects of a relationship.
In simpler terms, Omokri suggests that when a man expresses his love to a woman in Southern Nigeria, she interprets it as a debt owed to her. Consequently, men may seek love and companionship elsewhere.
He mentioned that the majority of women would consider it normal for a man to provide for her and her family without expecting any gratitude in return. He said to prevent a surge in unmarried women in Nigeria, the country would need to have visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to more countries.

I can understand why Moses Bliss married a Ghanaian. I have been to Ghana, and their women tend to be easier to relate with than many Southern Nigerian women. In fact, is love without billing still possible in Southern Nigeria?
In our part of the world, ‘He is loving’ means ‘He is spending’. When you tell many Southern Nigerian girls, ‘I love you’, they hear, ‘You owe me’. Especially those with Industrial Money Obtainer culture. If you marry the Industrial Money Obtainers, I pity you.
The billing will become industrial. You will look after her and her entire family. No capping. And better not expect gratitude. In their eyes, you are doing your duty. If Nigeria had visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to more countries, there would be an epidemic of unmarried women in Nigeria.
Because when Southern Nigerian men travel within Africa and outside Africa and encounter beautiful women who are not money conscious, they quickly lose their appetite for Nigerian women. Already, Nigerian men are considered a catch by South African and Kenyan women.
We urgently need a cultural reorientation amongst our women. Especially in Southern Nigeria. The monetisation of relationships in Southern Nigeria is just too suffocating. I am well-traveled, and I am yet to see the level of commercialisation of romance I have seen in Southern Nigeria. I call it as I see it!
