Alibaba, the Nigerian comedian, has taken to social media to address men who feel threatened by their wives’ higher earnings.
In an Instagram post on Friday, the actor shared tweets urging women earning more than their husbands to quit their jobs.
Weighing in on the issue, the 59-year-old suggested that men who earn lower than their wives should be the ones to quit their jobs instead.
He also urged the category of men to upgrade their financial status instead of feeling insecure.
“All these lies you people are sharing will keeeeee you people soon. Who are these women who fall for such lies? If you earn more than your man, let him quit his own job. Nonsense!” he wrote.
“Who are these lazy bumcums peddling these stupid narratives? You are earning N1.5m a month, and your madam is earning 10m monthly. And with that kind of job comes different benefits, you will tell her to resign.
“That means your self-confidence is financially driven and anchored. Insecurities my foot. So, Stedman will tell Oprah Winfrey to resign. Who is bringing up these men with self esteem that is defined by financial status?
“No wonder, once a woman looks rich and exudes prosperity vibes, these sort of mean become weaklings. Instead of being challenged and driven to upgrade your financial status. Shiooooo.”
