Josephina Ijeoma Otabor, popularly known as Phyna, a controversial figure from Big Brother Naija and the entertainment industry, has candidly shared her perspective on relationship priorities, asserting that wealth is not a criterion she seeks in a potential partner.
In the latest episode of her podcast, “Spill With Phyna,” featuring singer Khaid as a guest, Phyna expressed her preference for a loving and caring partner over financial affluence. She emphasized her independence and ability to cater to her own financial needs, stating, “When it comes to my ideal partner, I don’t even want your money. As long as you love me, you care for me. Don’t worry, I will handle my financial needs.”
Phyna highlighted the societal stigma surrounding men dating wealthier women, challenging the notion that financial disparities should hinder romantic connections. She lamented the apprehension some men feel about dating women of higher financial status, advocating for a shift in perspective.
Conversely, Khaid, her guest on the podcast, expressed a willingness to embrace the opportunity of dating a wealthier woman, acknowledging the importance of financial stability in relationships. However, he emphasized the importance of mutual respect and equality in such dynamics, asserting that wealth should not become a source of discrimination or imbalance in the relationship.
