”If you make the mistake, you’ll see yourself six feet down” – Nigerian man advises successful women against ‘marrying down’
Nigerian man, Ufuoma Bernard, has cautioned successful women against marrying men who are less successful than they are.
He gave this advice in reaction to the tragic death of a Nigerian woman, whom he claimed had suffered physical, financial, and emotional abuse in her marriage.
According to Bernard, marriages are more likely to thrive when men marry women who are less successful, but not the reverse.
”A man can successfully marry down, not the other way round!!!!!! Sefa Awen was an employee of Doosuursh Awen. She married him and moved him into her house!!! This is a classical error in choosing a man. If you’re a successful woman, go for a more successful man. Don’t go for a muscular or bearded man without a Kobo. If you make the mortal mistake of marrying down as a woman you’ll see yourself six feet down or down in drama and despair,” he wrote in a Facebook post on Wednesday
